  • Awful ‘upgrade’

    Like many others, I find this upgrade has ruined the app. The ‘my location’ and lots of info both sacrificed for .... well, I don’t know what! Please revert! Rubbish!
  • Out of date

    Out of date app with incorrect bus times.
    Rely on the app and you will b waiting in the freezing cold for a bus that will not turn up when expected.
    DO NOT RELY ON THIS APP IT US RUBBUSH!
  • Worthless

    Takes an age to to plan anything and just can’t seem to customise it to preferred routes so instead of picking the best route it’ll give one with umpteen bus, rail and walks. Thought it would be better than downloading timetables but unfortunately not
  • Merseytravel

    Timetables an be inaccurate,not sure if they are ever updated, but don’t appear to be as my local route has been wrong for around a year,not what you need for a timetable app!
  • Upgrade Disaster

    This used to be an excellent app but the latest upgrade is a disaster. Instead of defaulting to My Location as it used to - you now have to select My Location from a list. Most inconvenient. Also much fewer departures are now shown. Please revert to the previous version.
  • Version 4.2.6 is unusable!

    Have loved using previous versions of this app but not anymore. This version is hopeless! Instead of just opening the app and it immediately finding your location and showing nearby departures, you know have to select ‘my location’ from a list before the app will do anything. When you’ve finally worked that out, you are then left with a yellow box covering half the screen, allowing only 3 departure times to be displayed at the bottom!!! I have never seen such a disaster of an ‘upgrade’! Please bring back version 3 and stop trying to be so clever: it’s not working!

  • Needs regular updates

    The app says the bus I need comes at 8 after; the sign at the stop says 18 after and that's when the bus arrives so I have to add 10 minutes onto the departure time showing n the app which invalidates the times of any connections and negates the usefulness of this app. Plus the routes change but not on the app. Needs regular updates. Please!

  • Journey planner, not timetables

    This does include all forms of transport and it works well. There are two options: trips (typical journey planner using start and finish points) and departures (where you enter a start point and a time and it gives you all nearby departures). What you don't seem to be able to do is access the timetables directly, e.g. search for a particular bus route. Merseytravel produce very clear PDF timetables with maps and in some circumstances it's that quick overview you want in order to plan a journey, without having to enter specific times and locations.

  • Marvellous

    What a great app! thank you for producing the app, has made using public transport in Liverpool so much easier. The app has never crashed for me and I use it every day (numerous times).

    The three thing would make the app even better, in my opinion;
    -A “via” section on the trip search- for example it may be better for me to use a certain bus route or train, rather than using the default one selected by the app (which likes to go via the city centre at times, as in theory that is the quickest route, apart from in rush hour)- can make planning a journey with connections trickier- as you have to split the journey manually through your own preferred route (due to frequency of the buses, or more reliable services).

    - Saved searches for trips- i know it has favourites for locations- but not journeys, but that would save two steps.

    - Integrate the map with apple maps, so it is more interactive and searches can be done on the map- rather than copying and pasting the street names into Apple maps.

    Regardless this app is a Godsend.
    Thanks you once again.
