Suggest to have a drop down list to select operators and bus stops of the selected routes **Developer response:** Thank you for supporting Datatone and your 5 star review!🤩 Sorry for the inconvenience made. The widget setup is controlled by iOS, sadly the structure provided is not friendly and the choice for us to configure is very limited when facing parent-parent-child structure(bus route-> bus stop -> joint bus stop). That's the only way for us to design the structure (back to the day when iOS 14 launch). It does incur quite a lot of inconvenience as we observed the user feedback.😢 ### 1/5 — 可惜… *2022-07-16* 個版本設計唔錯同埋都好user friendly 但係個widget 本身就一個bug 尤其係我最用得著吽巴士小巴widget 如果debug後，我會俾返5星 **Developer response:** 2023年9月更新： Datatone已經大大改善了用戶體驗 希望你可以重新試用及考慮重新給予新的評價！🤩 ————————— 多謝回報問題！ 請問係咩bug? 邊條路線同埋巴士站？ 可以用App內回報問題得到更即時協助！ ## Frequently asked questions about Datatone ### What data does Datatone provide?
