Never works anymore

Always says “no nearby buses”.

Yikes.

This app was decent at first. It worked for like a month and then one day I was leaving my college building to see what time my bus would be arriving and instead of the usual display of the buses and their arriving times, there was a display of “no nearby buses.” Quite annoying. I thought maybe it was my service, but it was simply just the app tweaking. I had to stand around outside for over twenty minutes, waiting, because I was nervous that I’d miss the upcoming buses. Hoping that the problem gets fixed before I delete the app.

Would be a great app if it worked!

I would’ve given this 5 stars if it was working. I’ve had this app for awhile and it’s a had a few minor glitches but now it just says no near by buses. Hopefully it’ll get fixed because it can be very handy for a Bus commuter such as myself.

Works well to a point

I generally take a bus from Wonderland to get home, but there's some sort of bug with *specifically* the Wonderland bus station loading.

Whenever I try to select the Wonderland stop, the app will crash. That means that if I am actually at or near the Wonderland bus stop, I can't open the app at all because it will crash immediately upon opening. Not really sure what the problem is, but it definitely brings usability way down for me.

I love this app, but...

I use this app every single day, and I love it... But recently it stopped working and I've been forced to rely on other inferior bus apps. The problems I've been noticing are: 1) the app crashes if I try to check certain stops, 2) the app shows no nearby buses for bus stops I know are active, 3) some of the arrival times for stops which are functional seem to be inaccurate.

Please fix it so I can have this app back!

Not good

What is this??????

It doesn't work with the update!!!!

It doesn't work with the new update, useless!!!!!

Useless

Completely inaccurate, wasted so much time and frustration waiting for nonexistent buses. Deleting now.

Best MBTA app

Lately, this app has been crashing! Won't work properly. 😾

Whomp Whomp

This app was incredibly on target until a couple days ago it basically just stopped working. It's saying no nearby buses on routes that are stilling running. You have to hope that if you follow the bus line on the app that you'll eventually get one that pops up and guesstimate.
