Patti,

Choose “Transit Tracker” Then choose “CTA Busses” or “Pace Busses". Select your bus route, route direction, and bus stop. Then you need to click the little heart heart icon which has an audio label of “Save as Favorite”. It is located about maybe 20% down from the right corner of you mobile device. They made the button very wide and reasonably tall so it should be very easy to fine.  


Next time you go back to “Transit Tracker” you will see a new menu item appear called “My Favorites”.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back. 

Please text the word BLIND to 85944 to donate $10 to the NFB Imagination Fund via your phone bill.
