Wiesz KiedyWiesz Kiedy offline: timetable, map and addresses without internet
What works in Wiesz Kiedy without signal, how to download the timetable for the next days, the city map and offline address search, how much space they take and what you will not see offline.
The metro, a basement, roaming abroad or a data plan running out: public transport matters most exactly when there is no internet. Wiesz Kiedy is ready for that.
What works offline straight away
Your city's timetable is stored on the phone. Without signal you still have:
- departures from stops according to the timetable,
- the journey planner with changes and walking,
- stop timetables and line routes,
- saved places, routes and favourite stops.
When there is no internet the app says so clearly, e.g. “No internet · timetable from 7.11 may differ from today's”.
What to download in advance
Settings → Data and offline has three switches. Each downloads only over Wi-Fi:
| Option | What you get | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Offline timetable for the next days | tomorrow's timetable, so the app works offline after midnight too | about 1–40 MB, depending on the city |
| Offline map | the city map works without internet | about 50 MB |
| Offline addresses | street and place search without internet | a few dozen MB |
The map downloads in the background; you will see “Downloading map: 40%”, and off Wi-Fi the app simply waits.
What you will not get offline
Live data: vehicle positions on the map, current delays and new disruption notices. Departure times then come from the timetable. When the internet is back, the app fetches the latest data and updates the timetable by itself.
Saving data
By default the app uses the Wiesz Kiedy server: a ready timetable in a few seconds and live data that takes a dozen times less transfer than fetching straight from the operators. A good choice on a small data plan.
Going to another city
The timetable downloads for the chosen city. Before you travel, switch the city in the app while you still have Wi-Fi and, if you like, download the offline map too. How switching cities works is in the guide choosing your city.
