Times all wrong

Useless. Tried to use to get a bus on Milton Road twice over last couple of months. The buses on the live tracker aren’t there. Times all wrong. Don’t bother. No idea where this app gets its info but its not from the actual position of the buses

Almost useful

App is a bit clunky when it comes to finding a stop on the map and then opening the most obvious information you would need, the times of arrival of buses. At least it covers all operators but never seems to be exactly in sync with electronic displays at stops.

Works well for me

I’ve been using this app for some years and I think it’s great. It’s simple to use and I like the format of “live” bus progress. It’s always worked well for me.

Realtime departures

This app has the same data as the screens at the stops. Absolute game changer for using buses. How it has such a low rating is beyond me

Need updates more frequently

Buses are not always updated especially when there are delays and major disruptions to the service.

Poor

Awkward to select any destination not already saved as one of “My Stops”. Far inferior to “Bus Checker”, so I’ll be deleting it.

Search options appalling

Searching for bus number/letters bring up buses that don’t have the number or letter in them. Does not localise search to area you are located. Search for bus stops the same.

Used the app for the first time

This is an oddly designed app. It seems to have missed the point of what we want. I want to find a bus between where I am and where I want to go. It’s really simple. Instead you show me buses that don’t stop anywhere near where I am. Also you seem to fixated with the work stop and the home stop. I don’t care about this. This is not what I am trying to do. In the end I gave up and used Google maps. Sorry, it needs a rewrite.

Why don’t bus companies update cancelled services?

It’s pretty useless when the bus companies don’t update the services they have cancelled. For example 16 & 17th September the X3 is running a highly reduced service but all the cancelled buses are still showing in your app. How is that helpful?

Also please add the ability to rename, or to add a name, to the stops in “my stops”. It’s confusing when many stops have the same name in both directions. Unless you happen to know the difference between the 0500SCAMB007 and 0500SCAMB010 it’s confusing. If I could add “To Cambridge” and “From Cambridge” it’d be much clearer.

Great app, accept when you can’t see where the buses are
