It SHOWS and updates the latest LOCATION OF A BUS easily and quickly. I just wish the app had an option to view a satellite (preferably a hybrid) view of map. ### 5/5 — Worth the 99¢ *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* This app works on or off wifi/cellular data since there is a tab of the route maps. Other apps were either incomplete for trip planning or wouldn't cooperate when loading a bus arrival off wifi. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* Great app, very useful and well done, clean look. I've recommended it to multiple people ### 4/5 — Good app for getting around CU. *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* Overall decent app, and developer keeps it up to date fairly regularly which is very important as the routes and schedules for CU MTD change frequently. The only change I would make would be to have the map default to your current location. ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* Really helpful ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* This app is the reason I make it to class on time. Takes the hassle out of CUMTD and has saved me more than a few times. Must have for anyone in the Champaign-Urbana area! ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* What a wonderful app! Works to perfection every time. I would recommend it to anyone who uses the cumtd bus! ### 5/5 — Reliable and super useful app *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* I use it almost everyday for almost a year now and it works absolutely perfectly. Love it!! ### 5/5 — Best CU Bus App Out There! *2014-03-13, version 1.4.1* Great interface, and always works well! ### 5/5 — Great must have *2014-03-11, version 1.4* I used the official stops app for over a year. When I found this app, I knew it was a winner compared to the crappy cutmd app. Location features, favorites, trip planning, and even maps and schedules you can access online make this a must have app. It is even better than some of the other paid apps! ### 5/5 — Best choice for CUMTD *2013-10-03, version 1.3* This is definitely the best option of all the CUMTD apps. I've been using this for 3 years and it hasn't let me down yet ### 5/5 — Great app!!! *2013-08-28, version 1.3* I'm usually too lazy to ever write a review for apps. But this one is one of those that you just gotta support. The app is amazing very clean, fast, easy to use, I love the bookmark option and I really love how you can see where the bus is on the map view! Great job guys! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Teach *2018-09-19, version 1.4.3* Outdated. Doesn’t even show stops in my city. Trash app. ### 1/5 — Terrible app terrible customer support *2018-09-07, version 1.4.3* Trip planner on app does not include the ability to schedule a time for the trip just tells you what buses happen to be around you at the time you’re using the app. Also customer support is terrible sent two emails months ago which were never answered. Also has trouble recognizing local landmarks in streets. ### 1/5 — Something Must Be Broken. *2014-08-24, version 1.4.1* Any time I'd click on a stop, it would say there was no scheduled stops, "look ahead 60 minutes" didn't bring anything up either. How am I supposed to know when to catch the bus I want? ### 1/5 — Terrible! *2013-01-04, version 1.2* Though I had exact addresses this app wouldn't recognize any location I entered. I spent 30 minutes attempting to search for any route at all and still couldn't get directions. Ugh!! ### 1/5 — Poor App *2012-10-15, version 1.2* Time is not accurate Interface not well designed ### 2/5 — Sorely needs an update *2018-11-03, version 1.4.3* I really wish this would be updated. It’s nice to see where the bus is compared to you on the map, and the map overlays make it easy to have a pocket guide of routes. Many other competitors still don’t do this. That said, the data is beginning to become out of date as MTD has changed routes and constructed new stops. I hope for an update but not holding my breath, unfortunately. ### 2/5 — Doesn’t include some buses *2018-08-30, version 1.4.3* Doesn’t include bus 9A at Transit Plaza!! Why not? ### 2/5 — Potential, but poorly maintained *2012-10-03, version 1.2* Good interface, useful features, except the routes are not up to date. I have had two updates since the routes changed an they are still the old routes. ### 4/5 — Apple Watch support *2015-11-09, version 1.4.2* It would be super cool if app works on Apple Watch. ### 4/5 — Just get the free app *2014-09-02, version 1.4.1* PLEASE whoever makes this app, make it so it's possible to schedule trips out more than 1hr in advance!! That would be sooo worth the 99cents! This app is a wonderful help with the buses and I love that they have GPS tracking real time. But the free app does the same stuff. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App and Always Updated *2016-10-01, version 1.4.3* I love this app. It helps me navigate through all of Champaign and Urbana. The bus times are always updated so that you know if a bus is behind schedule. It also allows you to type in a place you would like to go and then gives you several options of how to get there. It knows my location so know matter where I am, it can point to me to the nearest bus stop for a route home. ### 5/5 — Although not free, good bus app on UIUC. *2015-12-05, version 1.4.3* I have been using it for a year now. 1 shows where the bus is now 2 shows the route of the bus route 3 reliable never fails (Illini bus does fail sometime) 4 location services ### 5/5 — Great app! *2015-08-27, version 1.4.2* Used this to plan bus trips to and from work. Easy to use interface and up to date info about when your next bus is coming. ### 5/5 — Update Aug 2015? *2015-07-24, version 1.4.2* Outstanding app. Easy to use, lots of useful info. Better than CUMTD's own app or info. Will you update for major route changes, new routes and new stops for Aug. 2015? ### 5/5 — Reliable *2015-03-19, version 1.4.2* Reliable app that is easy to use and is the only app you have to use. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2015-02-16, version 1.4.2* This app is much better than Illini Bus and it is also more reliable. The update looks great on iPhone 6 and I am very happy with it. ### 5/5 — Great app *2015-02-01, version 1.4.2* I love seeing the real time location of the busses. Thanks for making this app. ### 5/5 — Best CUMTD app *2014-04-27, version 1.4.1* I have used a lot of apps over the years for cumtd. This one is definitely the best. ### 5/5 — My go-to for navigating CU *2014-03-14, version 1.4.1* I've come to rely heavily on this app and it does not disappoint. After using a few different apps for getting around CU, this one stuck out for it's reliability and timely updates. ### 5/5 — Great *2014-03-14, version 1.4.1* Love using this app. Being able to bookmark my frequent stops is amazing. Almost always accurate times. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
