Intentional Ad Placement

I used to use this app, and have done happily for the past year, where I’d have at least 10 seconds to check what time my bus comes, before an ad pops up to incapacitate my screen. In the last month or so, it’s been configured such that now 1-2 minutes is spent waiting for an ad to load up first. In London, when checking both bus and train times, every minute can be crucial. Right now, there’s almost no point in a free version of the app any longer. Thanks for the help, when you did - I’ll miss you sorely.

Unusable

Ads become so aggressive you can’t even do the thing the app is designed to do.. check the bus! Ridiculous.

Ads.again!

The app has now gotten even worse with ads. When you open up the app it’s a ad straight away, you can’t even close the app and try again, you must watch it…. App is now ruined. Shame it was doing so well.
Just missed my bus because of it…. Do not download

Rubbish

About 70 percent of the time this is wrong. Can’t rely on this. Please sort this out.

Too many ads

I just want to check the bus times, I open the app and nearly every single time I have to watch an ad. It is ridiculous . Don’t download this app it’s horrible with the amount of ads .
