2026.8

June 12, 2026

A big improvement for Live Departure Widgets in this release: you can now pin a station inside a widget. This means that you can now have multiple Live Departure Widgets on your Home Screen, one for each station. We've been busy during 2026. Here's some of the additions to the app we've made since the start of the year in case you've missed any: • New custom fonts, including dyslexia-friendly options, available in Settings • Destination Filters: show only services that stop at your chosen destination from stations and bus stops • Sort saved stops and stations by distance from your current location • Service Alert Summaries: quick, easy-to-read disruption overviews • Improved battery efficiency when using live directions and location features • Smarter Live Activities with automatic trip completion and journey summaries • Home & Work locations can now be edited or removed • Saved places and stations now sync automatically across devices with iCloud • New Shortcuts and Siri support to start live directions instantly as a Live Activity • The app now remembers your preferred route choices for regular journeys • Clearer train departure boards in both the app and widgets Enjoying the app?

Slow

It’s fine if you can get anything to load at all

Chris is the goat

Chris from the AB1 bus actually made my day so much better, he’s the best. What a guy. Deserves a raise.

The App

The App isn't very user friendly. I will delete it on the 10th because all I want to do is see the bus schedules, not make a trip. Your format is all wrong. I could design a better app than this.Lol

I use this app all the time- however there’s room for improvement….

I really like several aspects of this app, but there are definitely areas that could be improved.

The route planning is very helpful — you can choose your method of transportation, get step-by-step directions, ETAs, and route updates, and the app continues running in the background even when your phone is locked. I also like being able to save routes instead of searching them every time. The real-time tracking feature is a great idea as well.

However, the live tracking is not always accurate or consistently updated. Sometimes it will say a bus or train was at a stop several minutes ago, but then stop updating its location entirely.

I’m also disappointed that some route options are locked behind a paid subscription. The free version only shows limited routes, while apps like Google Maps or Apple Maps provide similar transit information at no cost.

Another issue is that if you don’t press “Go” when starting a route, the app doesn’t recognize that you’re already on the bus or train. Instead of updating your trip progress, it may only show the next arrival times, which can be confusing.

Overall, though, the app still has a lot of useful features and I use it often. For people who use public transportation regularly — especially those willing to pay for the subscription — it could be a really great app. The free version may still work perfectly fine for some users as well.

Once you get a subscription, they make canceling it so difficult it’s nearly impossible
