App just doesn’t work at all. Go to view a route and says they are unable to get this information despite it being a popular route and have previously had access to it. Please fix I have no other way of knowing if the buses are running or not

Worst app for accuracy

This is by far the worst app and the worst bus service ever! The supposed “live” tracker is something to be laughed at if it wasn’t for frustration because some people have no other option but to rely on this shoddy bus service. First bus weren’t the most reliable but certainly better than this scam company who can’t operate an app to save themselves. With the bus timetables being unreliable, we count on the app. However, ever since using it, timings have jumped ridiculously. One minute it’s 15 min until bus, then a couple of min later it’s 8 min. Then when it’s 1 min and your just wanting to get to your destination the tracker tells you it’s 27 min shortly followed by 29 min. Sort it out! If there was any other alternative, believe me, we’d choose it!

Informative

Easy to use and full of relevant information.

Great app

This app so far seems to be working great, easy to figure out and favourite/save your regular bus stops. Comes with Live bus times and tracking that seems to be working fine.
Over all very happy with it.

What a shockingly bad app and service...

First off, these “Live Times” are a fiction. The number of non-live busses are shocking. This company is planning to hit this service to one bus an hour and they don’t plan on improving anything. Also, just as a bonus, the “Feedback” page doesn’t work.
Get your walking shoes on, because you have less chance of getting one of these buses that you have of winning the lottery.

An upgrade all round

Compared to the previous app from the previous company, this is great

The only suggestion I could make is that being able to reorder the favourite stops lists with an edit button would be a nice touch

McGill’s Scotland East

Congratulations on your acquisition of First Scotland East. I had very good experiences of using the 118 running from Gartnavel Hospital when this was operated by McGills (2019to 2020). The regular driver was exceptional.
I look forward to using the X10 and X10A services which you operate.
