  • Worst.

    The app. I had used for years was suddenly denied information from the MBTA. I switched to this through The MBTA website, and it’s terrible. 1) always errors getting bus predictions; 2) doesn’t show multiple buses arriving at a stop, nor the bus number, nor the clock arrival AND minutes - just minutes until arrival. Oh, and did I mention the CONSTANT error messages???

  • Too many error

    Not reliable anymore. Too many errors pop up when check on bus arrivals. Certain stops and lines don’t show arrival times
  • Don’t bother...

    This app is awful. It’s not accurate, and adjusts with huge gaps of time. Once mine went from 26 minutes to 12 minutes. Or even worse from 1 minute to another 10 minutes. It makes your commute harder and way more frustrating. Eventually my app just stopped working and no more predictions could be found. Save yourself a lot of frustration and DO NOT USE THIS APP. ProximiT is waaaaay better.

  • Updated - almost fully functional again

    After about 4 days of no time info from Oct 15, then 4-5 days of totally unreliable information, it seems most basic functionality has returned. I’m not sure I’d trust it for anything further than 15 mins away - but that’s probably a minor issue. Real-time arrival info on a number of routes seems reliable again

    ——-

    I’ve depended on this app for years, but as others have noted, as of Oct 15, no bus time info is available on any route.

    I’ve noticed the same on other similar apps. Have the MBTA shut off their bus tracking info?

  • Simple in a good way

    I find this app simple and easy to use, and way handier than Transit, which is just too much. With this app I have my favorites list for busses, and that’s really all I want. Much quicker for me in the morning.
  • help... but stop help with couple weeks

    I really need this app! when I get it working perfect but after 3 or 4 weeks.. stoped... my bus route is all mess up... I contact Alex and he’s so helpful!!! bit unfortunately the app stills bad!
  • Great app, but...

    Was a great app but now doesn’t busses just say inbound or outbound so no idea if it’s the bus you’re waiting for. Used this for the past 4 years to track when my kids bus was coming but now that it just says inbound I have no idea if it’s their bus or not.
  • GREAT until Oct 14 doesn’t work any more

    I used this app every day for both MBTA buses and trains. It stopped working on Oct 14, 2018 and it is very upsetting. The email for customer support does not work, so I’m hoping this review gets to the developer. Please fix this app!
  • App working again!

    The app is working again! Thank you so much for fixing this issue.
  • Glorified bus schedule

    This app disappointed in that it cost me a dollar to have a worse experience than the free apps. It’s basically a gloried bus schedule that required you to click down 10 levels to get the information you want.

    I found it too cumbersome to manage (other apps show you the nearest buses and how far away they are without any clicks). Also, this app seems to require previous knowledge of what bus you want, so you need to manually enter the bus line to see where it is.

    I did not use this app long enough to see if the upcoming bus times were accurate.
