Mr Eral (the goat bus driver)

And the app is ok
SSkylarcheeg

Nonfunctional app

This app does not work on a daily basis and is a waste of school board resources. Do not recommend.
LLivytomtom

Ok but could use improvements

Seems to always error out saying” no internet connection” then it’ll refresh and be ok. Also can’t go on the ETA or how close the bus is, you have to memorize the bus route to know how approximate the bus is to arriving. Better than nothing though
Ccraijona

Doesn't work

Bus almost never visible, location usually vastly delayed.

This app rarely works

This app would be great if it worked. Either the buses don’t report, or there are long delays in notifying the user where the bus is. It sends random messages throughout the day saying the bus is nearby, long after the student has arrived at school. There are no other alternatives to this app, however. I use an AirTag to know where my child is because this app sucks.
