Q: What app do you use for public transport?

I just arrived in Beijing and I was wondering what app people use here to get around with buses and metros?

I'm using Baidu Ditu, which is probably the best, but it's all in Chinese so I can't figure out more than just directions and bus numbers. Can you see when your bus is coming exactly like Google Maps does it? If so where is that?

And is there a place to switch the language to English?

If not, is there an app that foreigners use instead?

You can't switch Baidu ditu to English.

If youve got an iphone then the Apple maps will give public transport directions but not real time tracking.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
