What's New in BusPlanner Delays

Adjusted app icon badge and past notifications count to clear on app open

User reviews

A reliable school bus app isn’t a luxury.it’s a necessity for students and parents.

The current school bus app for kids is not working reliably. The school board should consider developing an alternative app that provides basic information such as bus location, delays, pickup times, and notifications. It is frustrating when parents and students cannot access important transportation information. A simple, dependable app would greatly improve the experience for families.

Absolute Trash

I tried to check if my bus would have a driver shortage and it never told me also it never gave me a notification that my bus wouldn’t have come this morning I had to go to the Google website to find that out just use Google

Works Perfectly

Not sure what people in these reviews are having problems with. I followed the prompts, entered my schools, added bus routes and it works perfectly fine. I’m getting push notifications and notifications in the app. All the routes I selected show up. It wasn’t difficult at all. All the bad reviews are wildly inaccurate and seem to be problems with the user and reading comprehension over the app. You have to know what bus and school your child goes on/attends. That’s the most difficult part and has nothing to do with the app. All routs are present. I go to 4 different schools in Guelph ON and it is updating and notifying me regularly. Works as it should and I would recommend it to anyone with an IQ higher than a parakeet.

Really unreliable

Every time I use the app, I turned on notifications they barely or ever work. Sometimes the app refuses to open.

No notifications

Notifications don’t work. Yesterday the bus was delayed. No notification. Today the bus was cancelled. Again, no notification.
