Indonesia has a large and growing population. Rapid population growth has led to increased mobility and the need for transportation to fulfill daily activities. Heavy traffic and congestion that often occurs in various cities in Indonesia are problems that affect the mobility and efficiency of public transportation. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the use of mobile-based applications in public transportation services in optimizing routes and providing efficient services through jalankemana applications. The data in the analysis of the use of mobile-based applications in public transportation services in optimizing routes and providing efficient services comes from data taken based on research results. This study used a survey research method, in which data were collected from respondents who were interviewed or filled out a questionnaire. The questionnaire will focus on the urgency related to the need for public transportation in the Yogyakarta area, especially Yogyakarta Muhammadiyah University students.
