## Newest reviews (2 of 18)

### 1/5 — Never gets past the loading page

*2017-09-08, version 1.0.23*

Everytime I've opened the app since downloading it, it never gets past the loading splash page.

### 1/5 — Wasted mobile data

*2017-08-31, version 1.0.23*

• 90% of searches won't go past loading
• No live update for late buses
• Permanently fails to refresh 
• Some of the bus times are missing
• Auto updates take forever
• Sometimes the app stops showing active lines

This app is as good as not having it at all.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — This app is absolutely useless.

*2023-05-20, version 1.0.29*

This app is absolutely useless. You’re better off using the Ensign website.

### 1/5 — Shockingly crap!

*2023-05-08, version 1.0.29*

For a transport company to have such a rubbish app is totally unacceptable. Looks like a child has designed it. It doesn’t track any buses so is totally pointless

### 1/5 — Busses don’t track

*2022-12-02, version 1.0.29*

The tracking worked for a week or two but now they don’t track at all

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2022-10-03, version 1.0.29*

It doesn’t even open so I have no idea if it’s any good or not (clearly it’s rubbish)

### 1/5 — Useless & inaccurate

*2022-05-23, version 1.0.29*

Doesn’t tell you correct live timings and user interface absolutely crap. Feels like an 18th century old computer system with numerous malfunctions. Please shut this to spread false information on bus timings

### 1/5 — Close the app

*2019-04-06, version 1.0.25*

What is the point of having this app if it doesn’t work & it’s inaccurate

### 1/5 — bad

*2019-01-04, version 1.0.25*

didn’t show the bus that i wanted to go on, and i am positive that it is ensign

### 1/5 — Poor

*2018-12-08, version 1.0.25*

Used to be good, now is very poor with no buses being shown on the map a lot of the time. Stops just say ‘loading’ and never tell you when the next bus is.

### 1/5 — D

*2018-10-19, version 1.0.25*

Garbage total garbage!

### 1/5 — Fix it

*2018-05-18, version 1.0.25*

It’s always crashing, causing them to be unreliable so instead, i avoid ensign and catch red buses sometimes
Also, they need to start using a double decker X80, I take it a few times a week and it’s just not spacious enough

## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Add online ticket purchasing

*2021-07-29, version 1.0.29*

The app works just fine. All I want is to be able to conveniently buy tickets before I board a bus.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2019-01-26, version 1.0.25*

The best app ever.
I found it extremely useful 😀
Thank you

### 5/5 — Fantastic app!

*2018-03-01, version 1.0.25*

I use this app 5/6 days a week and absolutely love it.
It shows where buses are on the map so you know in advance if they’re running late!
Access to live tweets is useful too, especially if you’re using routes that are regularly effected by traffic.
Would recommend this to anyone using ensignbus

### 4/5 — Please sort out.

*2017-08-19, version 1.0.23*

Generally good, though the updates need to be for that day only. Don't need to open find 10 updates for the last week. 
Also, it's stopped working on my iPhone 6. 
Please sort it out & you can have a fifth star.

### 3/5 — Not working

*2026-05-24, version 1.0.29*

As a big ensignbus fan I hate this app it doesn’t work anymore and yeah however older routes are still on there subscribe to bluejay11vr

### 3/5 — Still doesn't work

*2017-08-24, version 1.0.23*

When it worked it seemed inaccurate but now it doesn't work at all.
