Helpful App

After playing with the app for a while, I was able to figure out how to use it. Once I figured out how to use it, I see that this an app worth having. The bus time schedules provided on the app are spot on. The locations of where to catch the bus are spot on.

Me personally I don’t have any gripes about the app. Only improvements I can see is maybe including routes to specific locations. Like if I’m looking to get to the Post Office in Champaign, I could input my ‘to’ location to the “Post Office” and app could provide routes to get to Post Office from where I am.

I also had problems with my cardinal directions (North, East, West, South, NE, etc.). I missed the bus by being at the wrong stop. I was supposed to be the bus stop going NW per the app, but I was at the stop going the opposite direction and I just had to watch the bus drive by lol. So it’s anyway improve the app to better serve those who have troubles with their cardinal directions, they would be helpful.

Thanks for the app.

Hi LFBobi! MTD was experiencing a data outage that lasted several days during this time. Everything is working again now.

Works great and doesn’t eat my battery

Another popular app tends to use a lot of battery power when tracking buses. This app does not. It is useful for also seeing where the buses are on their routes.
