Bus

Isn’t always on time

Great but could be better

I always use this app and find that it’s pretty accurate in regards to bus times for my nearest stop, although I do find that the occasional bus disappears completely after showing arrival in “10 minutes”.
I find the “plan” feature is good when it actually works, although for the last few days when I have tried to select a day and time for my journey, the app closes. Really frustrating when I have an event or appointment to attend where I need to know the bus timings in advance.

Unreliable

Live tracking is wildly inaccurate.

Never trust it

It showed the bus will arrive in 5mins. After 5 mins, the bus just disappeared on the app. Totally misleading

Terrible compared to the original

This app is complete garbage nothing on it works properly bus times don’t show sometimes, it always takes you off the journey tracking page if you switch apps meaning you can’t double check what stop to get off at. Even when planning a journey the date and time are settings are a pain to deal with🙄 I’ve never written a review before in my life but i have now because i feel so passionately about it your app is garbage
