Time Saving

Helpful and easy to use! The real-time bus logging saved me from standing in the cold at the bus stop.

Written by a 3rd grader

I swear the app users have never been on a transit bus and farmed their coding to Mrs. Goodson’s 3rd-grade class.

Since some things works it’s not a 1. The interface is not intuitive, the buttons are confusing and why the hell am I not showing up as the blue dot on the map? Even coffee shops with app show me as the blue dot on the map!! But these yahoos can’t master that?

Please do better...I wish my transit system had bought a worthwhile product vs this garbage.

STOP ASKING FOR LOCATION SERVICES!!

The app works very well, but for those of us who want to use it in a read-only usage model (e.g. to just see where the buses are, not where I am) there is no need for it to have access to my location. It was fine to ask on first launch if I would enable location services. I declined. But the app ASKS for the services EVERY TIME IT’S LAUNCHED and EVERY TIME YOU TASK SWITCH TO IT.

I said no... I meant no... stop asking!!!

App

Although the app is helpful, it should not include buses that arrive then go out of service. I have encountered this several times.

Bunk

Super laggy, can’t tell where the bus is cause it jumps from one side of town to the other in a flash and then to another random location.. also shows the busses in places that aren’t on the route. Nice try though, good concept.

Only because I need it

The app frequently fails to load anything at all. If there were any other option, I would take it but unfortunately I just have to live with the bugs.

Convenient

Very quick to get around with no hassles! Courteous drivers!

Very Helpful!

Allows me to see the bus tracking along the route and provides time estimates for the stops. Makes riding the bus easy!

Unreliable

This app doesn’t consistently work. This past week it apparently upgraded the app and now it isn’t working at all. Not the first time these upgrades have caused this Even without these upgrade issues this app is really poor

I don’t like the update.

The updated app has made me confused. What if I don’t know the name of the stop I’m standing near? What if I want to see exactly where the trolly is departing from like the previous version? 🤔. So, confused.
