Goa’s ‘Goa on the Go’ app offers live bus tracking, online ticket booking, and WhatsApp chatbot support; launch delayed to January 2026.

The Goa On The Go app is a digital tool designed for bus service in Goa, including those in Panaji, allowing passengers to book tickets, track bus locations, and see arrival and departure times with a new WhatsApp chatbot feature. This feature is available on Android and iOS from Kadamba Transport Corporation Limited (KTC), aiming to make bus travel more convenient.

Transport director Pravimal Abhishek stated to TOI, "They need a composite relook at it, on which they are working." The app will also support online, making the process more convenient for smartphone users; the app will work in a more systematic manner.  It will digitize the back-end operations of the KTC to a certain extent as well. They are actively working on this right now and will be able to share more details in the coming weeks; he reported on August 30 that the indecision over bus timings is set to change with the launch of ‘Goa On The Go,’ which can be used by public bus commuters. This app can be used by public bus commuters. Commuters will be able to track the exact location of their bus, its distance from the nearest stop, and its expected arrival and departure times.

Passengers can now plan their travel with live tracking, avoid missing buses, and reduce waiting times. The integration of ticket booking also results in fewer cash transactions and greater convenience for those accustomed to digital payments.

In September, plans initially stayed underway to roll out the app with availability for both Android and iOS users. However, the launch was then scheduled for the 45th anniversary celebration of the KTC in Panaji. The delayed launch of the new feature is likely to occur in January 2026.
