SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- This summer all you'll need is your phone to catch a bus in San Francisco.

Muni will introduce a pilot program for Apple and Android users that'll allow you to pay anywhere at anytime.

It also means riders won't need exact change or have to find a Clipper card vending machine to add money.

The app will allow customers to pay with credit cards, debit cards and Pay-Pal.
