Fix

Haven’t received any notifications since downloading the app, I reached out to the school district with no help, I reached out to the contact support by sending an email message and still no response

Could be better

I think the location ping is great for the bus but the app keeps crashing or logging me out.

Idiot app

This app is the worst and idiot ly developed thing I have ever used. It’s zero star

Fixes

Please stop zooming out after I zoom in. Please. Please. Also, when viewing the bus on the map, having it labeled with the route name or letting us label it would be better than a random 5 digit number that doesn’t tell me which bus I’m looking at when we track multiple buses.

Useful mist days

App us great when ut works and saves sitting at the bus stop in the rain but it can be glitchy and logs out out periodically then obviously doesn’t send you notifications until you log back in again
