User reviews

So good

I am still using this app in 2025… but recently it work less and less, not loading busses, connection errors ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Rubbish

Absolutely awful app displays wrong times for buses and for the wrong stops, better just reading the physical timetable at the bus stop

I Need new routes

Hey I need new routes

Bad

Used to be a good app. These days it doesn't show live tracing if buses nor is it showing correct routes. Very disappointed

No long updated no longer working

This has been my go to app for years. It always gave you accurate times of due buses.
Unfortunately it’s not been updated for a
Number of months and it now only works if connected to WiFi, if you have 4G or 5G it will not load any data. I checked the app settings to ensure my phone allows mobile data and the settings are all good. Can only assume this app has died which is such a shame as other apps, going by the reviews are terrible for accurate bus information.
