### 3/5 — This app was 5 stars…

*2023-01-13, version 4.10.0*

The app had a great run, and I used it without issue for many years. Alas, the Easy Bart app has finally been deprecated, it appears that both the “schedule  trip” feature and the “real time departure” feature are not working. I just showed up to a Bart station, and this app said a train was departing, but there wasn’t one, and upon checking the Bart website, the train had been cancelled. Goodbye easy Bart app, you will be missed!

UPDATE! - even though the real-time departures don’t work anymore and they haven’t added the new San Jose station, I find myself still using the app because the map feature is so clutch. 

Solid app, I hope they update it!

### 2/5 — Live tracker is broken

*2022-08-11, version 4.10.0*

The live tracker is the worst.  Doesn’t show all the trains or is just totally off on the time.   It’s useful for scheduled times to get an idea on train times.

### 3/5 — Needs an update to indicate new stations and schedules

*2021-04-18, version 4.10.0*

This is a great app, but there are new stations on the “Fremont” line and the schedules are different because of covid and the new stations. Please add the new stations at a minimum even if the schedules are not updated. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Where is Milpitas and Berryessa?

*2021-02-27, version 4.10.0*

Are you not going to acknowledge the existence of the Milpitas and Berryessa stations? It’s been more than half a year now since they have been operational, What’s going on? Why the omission/delay?

### 1/5 — Out of date

*2020-06-14, version 4.10.0*

Bart has opened two new stations and they are not shown on the app.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2020-03-02, version 4.10.0*

Used to work, now you have to wait for all trains to scroll by. Inaccurate times, although that is probably due to BART itself being a mess.

### 3/5 — Trains in real time don’t list chronologically

*2020-02-27, version 4.10.0*

Trains in real time don’t list chronologically

### 1/5 — Never accurate

*2020-02-14, version 4.10.0*

Can’t believe i was using this app for so long. especially since there’s an official bart app. I liked it because it was so easy to plan trips with it, but it’s so inaccurate and has made me miss a train so many times. It’s not even correct with the new times BART came out with.

### 4/5 — Bart

*2020-01-27, version 4.10.0*

Good routing and transit routes

### 3/5 — App reboots

*2019-12-20, version 4.10.0*

It getting restart sometimes

### 1/5 — false times

*2019-10-31, version 4.9.0*

i checked to see what time antioch bart pulled up to embarcadero and it said 9:37 so i ran from my job to bart and got there at 9:30 and when i got down to bart it said the train had arrived and left at 9:28

### 1/5 — The times shown are ALWAYS WRONG

*2019-10-30, version 4.9.0*

I don’t understand how this app has such a high rating!!!! The time schedules shown are wrong 90% of the time!!!

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2019-10-19, version 4.9.0*

I’ve had this app for awhile now & have never had a complaint, because the app is great. A couple days ago when I would go in the app it would restart my phone. I have even deleted the app &  re-download & I get the same problem. I hope this could get fixed soon

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Horrible. Missing basic features

*2024-11-28, version 4.10.0*

It’s amazing an app this poor could be released these days. For example, looking to provide scheduling for friends arriving into SFO this evening, the app will only tell me departures scheduled imminently - there’s no obvious way in the app to explore departures at a later time in the day. Ridiculous!!

Also, I can’t do a search for SFO. It has to be spelled out San Francisco.

### 1/5 — Needs a major update

*2023-05-30, version 4.10.0*

This app needs a major update because it’s not showing all the no stops like Berryessa which is new and not shown on this app. Fix it please!! Had to delete cuz it wasn’t showing all stops! This app has not had any updates for over 3 years!!

### 1/5 — Do Not Buy!

*2023-05-27, version 4.10.0*

This app does not include the two BART stations in Milpitas and San Jose. RIDICULOUS WASTE!!

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2023-02-13, version 4.10.0*

Seems to not work anymore maybe needs update after various IOS updates or BART made a server change ?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-01-23, version 4.10.0*

No way (I can find) to remove favorite routes. The routes I have never have any schedules anymore. 

This app is completely broken. Should be removed from the App Store.

### 1/5 — No schedules found at that time

*2022-12-13, version 4.10.0*

Keep getting the ‘No schedules found at that time’ for my favorite routes. Used to use this app all the time, it was great, now it’s doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t seem to be working anymore.

*2022-11-28, version 4.10.0*

As of last week it usually incorrectly says there are “no schedules found departing at that time,” even though it shows the “real-time departures” list. The official app is the way to go at this point.

### 1/5 — Out of date

*2022-09-27, version 4.10.0*

Used to be great, but no longer includes all trains. Worthless.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t include all Bart trains.

*2022-04-29, version 4.10.0*

This app no longer tracks all trains; eg Barryessa trains are not shown. Recommend using official Bart app instead.

### 1/5 — Misleading/false info

*2022-03-09, version 4.10.0*

Displays only showed Berryessa and Dublin trains. I needed Antioch or Richmond so got on a train to Dublin thinking I’d check the app and worst case transfer at Lake Merritt. App said there was a Richmond train two minutes behind what I was on—according to schedule AND “real time departures” so I got off at West Oakland and waited. No Richmond train on the display. After three minutes I check the app and it shows a Richmond train in 15 minutes. Still no Richmond train on the display and no advisories about discontinued trains/service anywhere. No way to message anyone via the app or ask what happened. Thanks for screwing my commute.

### 5/5 — Simple and great

*2025-06-29, version 4.10.0*

It’s really simple and great - please update it! :)

### 5/5 — The most loving app, but needs serious update

*2024-11-05, version 4.10.0*

I love this app forever and has been my most favorite until today, but just realized it was never updated since last four whole years ago and many things changed so far.

Please kindly update with new BART stations such as Berriessa and many more to allow us look up new stations and schedules in real time.

I honestly, prefer this over OFFICIAL BART app

Thank you

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2024-07-13, version 4.10.0*

I don’t commute anymore, but when I did, this was indispensable!

### 5/5 — Great app, but.....

*2020-06-25, version 4.10.0*

Love the app but it needs to add the BART stations in Santa Clara County. 

Also is it possible to have a toggle selection for displaying the station map? I’d prefer the station map over the red pins as a default.

Thank you.

### 5/5 — Quick check departure time

*2020-02-20, version 4.10.0*

I add my favorite stations-trips and very quick to check the real time departure. Pretty reliable for Civic Center and Concord at least.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2020-01-31, version 4.10.0*

Really solid in accuracy.  Very useful

### 5/5 — Rest and Travel

*2019-10-04, version 4.7.1*

The luxury of resting and traveling simultaneously....Bart

### 5/5 — Best Bart app by far

*2019-07-15, version 4.6.0*

Best app available. Not even close. I’ve used them all.

### 5/5 — Not real time

*2019-05-21, version 4.6.0*

This app does not give the real time updates on the train departures/arrivals
