I like Transit for their quick at a glance public transit arrival times in NYC, but generally prefer Citymapper's overall step-by-step directions and multi-modal transit options. That being said Citymapper did put a bunch of things behind a paywall in the last few years that have made it less useful outside of pure public-transit directions.
I think Transit works great for status updates for buses or trains you're already familiar with. If I'm travelling an unfamiliar route, it's always Citymapper. Plus the fact that Citymapper suggests which part of the train to board for proximity to the nearest exit? Amazing.
