Improved experience when checking for user on-time reports

User reviews

Nice app! Handy

Central/Khayelitsha line is missing. And why has Metrorail forbidden live updates? We should start a campaign to change that.

Timetables not up to date

This app would be great but I've missed a few buses because the times don't match up with the actual times listed at the bus stops.

Difficult to use

Though the app is well designed, I find it to be very user unfriendly, often trying to scroll causes accidental taps. I think it is very confusing to find all travel information and will rather stick to the MyCiti website for that.

Potential

Great potential. If you could link the trains that are delayed/canceled it would help a lot more. UI needs improvement, the slider at the bottom when selecting stations is useless. Some words don't appear in full, they just end off... And if you link the train schedules maybe make the app send you a notification if the train is late or canceled. Just my input, good work!

Nice, but limited

Would be nice if all the MyCiti Routes are listed. T01-T03 plus 2xx routes.
