Awful App Top to Bottom

Just scrap it and try again. The previous app I used back in 2018-2019 was literally perfectly fine and I don’t understand the MASSIVE downgrade that is this one. It main menu looks like an old web site from 2000s. Its system is horrifically slow and resets constantly. Sometimes it doesn’t work at all and there’s no consistency as to why. It’s completely counterintuitive to the point that it feels intentional. Why when I click on a bus does it not show me all the possible stops/isolate the pathing?? When I click on a stop why can’t I click on the bus numbers which isolates those routes and buses? This has to be intentionally bad I have no other reasonable explanation in my head

Slowed down after the 2025 changes

What’s a wrong with this app??? It’s slowed down much worse and it never used to be painfully slow like this. I’m literally at the same bus stop I go to every time and it used to work on the same data connectivity. But now it doesn’t load at all!
First they get rid of the bus numbers on the stops and now even the stupid app doesn’t work!

Terrible app

App keeps crashing, terrible app. Wish they paid somebody to make it more user-friendly.

It’s great when it works right.

Right now we can’t see the buses on the maps. It crashes a LOT! It’s the best we have though. I need the RTS peeps to fix this app. Please. I am begging.

P-O-S

App crashes regularly. Cannot count the times I have had to reload. Total trash.

Doesn’t work

literally had not allowed me to even access the app for the past month.

Requires reinstalling after a couple uses

So this app just stops working after a while and requires a reinstall to use it again. I usually have to reinstall it every couple of days. I believe that the app most likely tries to persist data and fails which causes an error state. So reinstalling it removes the database and you get a new one upon the new installation which fixes it. I am an iOS developer so this is my opinion

Very Good

Whoever thought it was a good idea to switch from the other bus app should be fired.

Awful

I can only use the app once before it crashes to a blank screen. I then have to redownload it. I have to do it multiple times a day to use it. Do better

Worst transit system by far!!

Buses are always late or don’t even show up. The app’s server is never working to look up where the buses are. The drivers always blame the traffic when there are barely any cars on the road. I walk home faster than the bus and I live 1.7 miles away. So annoying!!!

The worst app

I can use the app once and then if I want to open it again it just says error. I’m forced to delete the app then redownload EVERY time I want to check my bus time. Also busses just don’t appear on the app.

Glitchy

Frequently crashes or says I have a slow server, then refuses to load the live tracker. Even thought my server is fine. 🙁The app is unusable 50% of the time.

Doesn’t load anymore

The bus system is already questionable but having an app with all the bus information that doesn’t work makes everything worse. App won’t load for me anymore and I have to use google maps which isn’t reliable.

Worst, the worst

Once you type the destination it never changes until uninstalled and reinstalled. Numerous other bugs and troubles. The developer must have used ChatGPT for their degree.

Still no change

Hundreds of people have already talked about the issues with the app, from the terrible interface to the app refusing to load quite often. For me, it loads less than half the time. However, I need to point out how these problems have been stated YEARS ago, and the last time this app got a patch was 2 years ago. That is insane. UF, what are you doing??? Get it together and update this glitchy nightmare that so many people rely on!

Edit: I just found out about NaviGator, and I can’t believe anybody still uses this app when there is a perfectly functional version of it. If you hate this app, get NaviGator. It does the same things except it actually works. It has 5 stars vs this one’s 1 star, and it shows. Get NaviGator.

Your in luck if it actually works

Great concept if it actually worked. I think it currently has a 95% non-usage for me. As in, 95% of the times I have tried using it (everyday) it doesn’t actually load and I need to keep clicking refresh (which does nothing asides from just popping the message back again). TransLoc wasn’t as detailed, but it ALWAYS worked. I’ll take a working app over this mess any day. Please just give us a working app. Doesn’t need to be fancy, doesn’t need to have 5 different map options. Just a reliable bus tracker.

One of the worst apps

It really shouldn’t be this difficult to find a bus. I mean the app won’t load unless I tilt my phone sideways, a tutorial pops up every time you open the app, and you can’t even see the map while you are looking up routes. It would be so easy to fix these problems.

AWFUL

Please fix the problems. Cannot even see where the buses are!

Always a problem

Every day it’s shutting down or not showing busses. When will there be a website as well instead of just the app? It’s been days and the busses still aren’t showing.
