### 4/5 — Was great - but broken?

*2026-05-21, version 3.0.0*

loved this app - simple clean and useful. doesn't seem to work anymore though? did tfl api change maybe? would live to see this working again.

### 5/5 — Solid, reliable app

*2021-12-05, version 3.0.0*

Easy to use, reliable, and accurate. This is my first review ever on the App Store and this app deserves it. I’ve been in the midst of nowhere-ville and this app came through to show me accurate times for when a bus will arrive. I don’t know what API this app uses but it’s STRONG. Massive kudos to the designer(s) and engineer(s). Don’t ever kill of this app, I need it.

### 5/5 — Super!

*2019-04-18*

Praktisch.

### 1/5 — Favourites lost & no longer works properly :(

*2016-09-22, version 3.0.0*

Used to love this app but all of my favourites have disappeared with this release and the 'Find Me' function hasn't worked in months (and I never got a response when I emailed in about it), though it no longer throws up an error message like it used to. Hugely disappointed as this was a great app.

### 5/5 — Must have app for bus users

*2014-03-01, version 2.0.1*

This app really takes the pain out of waiting for a bus. Uber simple to use and looks lovely.

### 1/5 — Splash Screen view not disappearing

*2013-06-02, version 1.0*

I've heard nothing but good things about this - and I really do love Sennep's apps. But whenever I launch it, it does nothing but display the splash screen! Tapping around the screen will occasionally bring up the keyboard... But that's it! On iPhone 4 with iOS 6

### 1/5 — Get it working

*2013-05-05, version 1.0*

### 1/5 — Freeze on opening

*2013-03-08, version 1.0*

### 1/5 — doest open

*2013-03-04*

### 1/5 — Awful faulty unreliable app

*2013-01-31, version 1.0*

Terrible app - reads differently to official times, buses don't appear, completely unreliable. Dont waste your time - this app has wasted mine.
