### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2024-09-12, version 1.0*

I constantly have to delete and re download every day for the app to even work. Whoever is the development of this app needs to be fired and never have a job again. I don't even want to give stars because you don't even deserve one. Make this app better so it can do it purpose.

### 1/5 — One of the worst apps ever

*2024-03-27, version 1.0*

How am I supposed to get to work if the app gives me the wrong stop or if the bus is late/early? I check the app and it says I have no signal??? Like now I’ve just got to get an Uber from the bus stop.

### 1/5 — If only it worked properly

*2023-07-21, version 1.0*

Has all the necessary tools to track and catch the bus in a helpful manner without a good server for doing what it should properly. Could be more user friendly and the bugs being fixed would help tremendously.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2023-07-15*

The app doesn’t work anymore

### 1/5 — Not as useful

*2023-07-03, version 1.0*

First it’s too complicated to understand. The developers really tried to make us have a hard time as users fr. 
The estimated times are never right and takes years to download the track info.

### 1/5 — Truly worthless

*2023-05-28, version 1.0*

This app serves no purpose. It does not even open 30% of the time, and when it does, it gives completely inaccurate times for when the bus will arrive. There is literally no reason to download this app.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2023-05-04, version 1.0*

The schedule provided is not accurate, and also the "real time" map function is non-existent. There's no way to track delayed buses. We waited over 20min for a supposedly scheduled bus that never arrived.

### 1/5 — Garbage get yourself a paper map much easier

*2023-03-12, version 1.0*

Terrible app. The interface is just terrible seems like they had a good idea which the live map but why can’t I see where I’m at on it. Also having to manually pull up the stop times is a joke. It was honestly much easier to use the paper map from the visitor center.

### 1/5 — Unstable and unreliable

*2023-01-09, version 1.0*

The app would be fine, but very frequently will not load. It just sits there spinning and then times out.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible service

*2026-07-28, version 1.0*

Always late, Sometimes they just deviate from their route for no reason.

### 1/5 — Too confusing and Slow

*2026-07-03, version 1.0*

App does open, always giving  Loading error

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2026-03-08, version 1.0*

Occasionally this app would show actual positions of buses along the route. Maybe the drivers can turn off GPS because I have been unable to locate a bus on the Forsyth route for weeks. So as a bus tracking app, it is USELESS.

### 1/5 — Very lousy

*2026-02-17, version 1.0*

The app and the service are pretty lousy. Not showing  buses and showing buses that aren’t there and then showing buses but then they all vanish a minute later. The bus schedule is a joke level of inaccuracy as well.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-12-22, version 1.0*

Don’t bother. Doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously BAD!!

*2025-11-27, version 1.0*

Fire the developer and hire a new one. What a terrible, badly designed, outdated, unfriendly, poor optimized app! Like seriously!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2025-10-22, version 1.0*

Won’t load

### 1/5 — Not working

*2025-08-02, version 1.0*

It will not come up on my phone is saying to make sure ur phone is not in airplane mode. Or to check ur connection. -1200 watt does that even mean. My phone is on. So y isn’t it working

### 1/5 — No tracking here

*2025-05-16, version 1.0*

Bad app. No tracking

### 1/5 — Hasn’t worked in a month

*2024-10-01, version 1.0*

This app hasn’t worked in over a month…

### 3/5 — Glitch on IOS device

*2025-08-04, version 1.0*

This app has not been working on my iPhone since Friday. It works fine on my android. What gives?

### 3/5 — Software Can Only Be As Helpful as the Vehicles

*2024-03-16, version 1.0*

I have been fortunate in not having experienced software glitches.  On the other hand, it seems the drivers may be deactivating their GPS at inconvenient times.  For example, here in the middle of the day I find the #31 route map entirely blank, with no bus in sight…

The last time this occurred was because there was only a single bus on the route, and that one had broken down…

### 2/5 — No me abre me dice error 1200

*2025-08-03, version 1.0*

No me abre pero en mi celular Android si funciona normal

### 2/5 — Very glitchy.

*2024-09-04, version 1.0*

I have to delete it and redownload it constantly.

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2023-01-26, version 1.0*

This is a good app when it works properly. But I’ve had to delete and redownload it 3 times just today because when you leave the page and return it won’t load and says there’s an error. Also sometimes the busses on the live tracker just disappear off the screen mid route

### 2/5 — Unreliable for tourists!

*2023-01-19, version 1.0*

This app could be awesome but it frequently doesn’t load the real time tracker. I’ve had to uninstall and re-install multiple times during  my week’s stay here.
