### 3/5 — Add walking option and clear bus stop icon

*2022-06-10, version 1.27*

Suggest to add a walking route option or manually chose walking over a strange weird bus route over a short distance. 

Change the bus top icon colour for the bus stops of the same bus route to make it stand out and look different than other bus stop on the same route (but is not the stops for that particular bus)

### 4/5 — Needs to be updated

*2022-01-08, version 1.27*

Still working ok but needs an update for the new public transport routes..

### 4/5 — No updates for 2 years

*2021-09-19, version 1.27*

Been using this app for years… notice that some bus stops name have changed but not updated in this app…
Please update, thanks.

### 4/5 — Certificate error today, please fix the issue.

*2021-01-17, version 1.27*

Certificate error today, please fix the issue.

### 4/5 — Please update this app

*2020-09-13, version 1.27*

There is a new bus number at the bus stop nearest to my place but thus app was not updated. Please do so. Thanks...

### 4/5 — Notification about Bus arrivals

*2020-02-26, version 1.27*

I like the notification 1-5min before the bus arrives but it would be even cooler if you can create an event like Mo-Fr busses 21 or 26 at 8:15am with 6min notification before arrival. So, you know automatically when to leave from home.

### 1/5 — Can’t launch the app

*2019-12-21, version 1.27*

Please do some bug fix as can’t launch the app for many days already

### 1/5 — Citymapper finally

*2019-11-27, version 1.27*

Finally this app has solid competition and they are loosing. Citymapper is far more accurate they support pedestrian/ cycling or however and It can easily replace gothere minus the shopping directory (which is basically advertising). Best part is that City mapper is not singapore specific and works like a charm on apple watch!

### 4/5 — Please update latest bus route.

*2019-05-06, version 1.25*

I had enjoy using your app for many years.  However I notice certain bus route was not update, for example bus 979. Otherwise I would rated a 5 stars if not for the update. Cheers!

### 2/5 — Grossly underestimated travel time

*2019-04-24, version 1.25*

The estimated travel time by bus is underestimated. Google Maps gives much more accurate estimate. What is estimated as 35mins in this app would most likely take twice as long

### 2/5 — A great App but doesn’t support Family sharing

*2019-04-03, version 1.25*

The App does not support Family sharing. It is already sold at a premium price yet does not support Family sharing. What a pity!
Too bad, not gonna spend more money on this for my wife and kids.. doesn’t make sense..

### 1/5 — Express bus services

*2018-07-18, version 1.25*

The app is good but keeps recommending express bus services as the fastest route. It would be better to have an option to decide on whether you want to use express bus services or not for your route.

### 4/5 — As good as it gets

*2018-06-22, version 1.25*

Since the revamp , I can safely say its the best public transport app in Singapore! Even within the route, it tells you bus timings and even whether its a single/double deck and whether is it wheelchair friendly! Couldn't get any better. The only gripe I have is that in tunnels or what, when you select “current location” it just goes blank and couldn’t give you the route.

### 1/5 — OUTDATED APP! Why still need to pay?

*2025-12-04, version 1.27*

New bus route not updated. Some of the MRT exits are wrong, leading to time wasted! Not a responsible app

### 1/5 — No update of app

*2025-11-08, version 1.27*

No update of app

### 1/5 — Train ride shows mostly bus routes

*2025-09-14, version 1.27*

Try going from Admirality station to Simei MRT station and it shows bus routes even though train option is selected..

### 1/5 — Cannot use at all. Always server error

*2024-12-19, version 1.27*

I paid for it, but cannot use. It’s always server errors

### 1/5 — Not updated

*2024-02-13, version 1.27*

Delete this app and go download Citymapper which is much better and foc. You're welcome.

### 1/5 — Outdated Info

*2023-09-16, version 1.27*

The last update was 4 yrs ago 😓

### 1/5 — Incorrect exit information

*2022-12-01, version 1.27*

The application needs to change the exit details from A, B, C D etc at MRT/LRT stations to reflect the current changes on the platforms, as it has changed to numbers.

### 1/5 — Cannot use directions feature

*2021-06-30, version 1.27*

I already gave the permission for current location to the app in the settings, but the app still asking for the permission when using the directions feature. It is stuck there.

### 1/5 — Error

*2021-01-17, version 1.27*

Purchased this app today but can't access as it appeared as can't reach the server

### 1/5 — Map not accurate

*2020-11-08, version 1.27*

No idea if it got to do with the latest iOS, map direction is not accurate (the direction beam which showing you which direction you are facing). In fact it’s showing me the opposite direction which made me walk totally the different direction.

### 5/5 — Better than Google Maps

*2026-03-20, version 1.27*

Yes, this is better than Google Maps, if only the developers would update it. It doesn’t have newer buildings but I just use the nearby building or street and it still work wonders. Please update it. It’s been 6 years and I have been using this app since 2017. I have been loyal. Come on now.. This app has potential, no apps come close.

### 5/5 — Need to update info

*2025-07-24, version 1.27*

Eg Outram park mrt exit now use number instead of alphabet 

Thank you.

### 5/5 — iOS 18

*2024-09-25, version 1.27*

It’s a great app but with iOS 18 the Widget is not working anymore. That kinda renders it a lot less interesting and functional.

### 5/5 — iOS 18 widget??

*2024-09-17, version 1.27*

Widget missing since updated to iOS 18

### 5/5 — Address is not taking from contacts

*2024-06-02, version 1.27*

Hi Team , 
I like the app very much  and it’s really helpful when you go unknown places or new places to find address but recently one nice feature get missed .. when I want to give target address I used to type the contact name so that it used to pickup the address stored under the contact but I couldn’t get that option recently.. can you please check and re enable that as it helps a lot    Thanks

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2022-09-29, version 1.27*

V easy to use. It gives options of traveling mode with no frills. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Getting better and better

*2019-08-04, version 1.26*

This app was great to use when it first started out. The recent update has only made it even more awesome!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2018-05-14, version 1.25*

Love how this app has changed and improved over time; it used to only show routes but now includes bus information like single/double deck, standing space or seats available and the intervals in which the next bus is available. No regrets purchasing this app. Thank you, Gothere.sg team!

### 5/5 — Glad with the changes done

*2017-12-09, version 1.24*

App is back to being what it does best, directions. The homepage is no longer featuring the promotions page, but a recent history page, which is great! Previously if you wanted to see bus arrival times at your current stop, you had to key in start and end locations then check the bus arrivals clock icon thing. 
Now i just click the most recent history, and click on the bus arrival icon. 

The promotions page(if you are into that) are on a separate tab, so no more ‘in your face’ promotion homepage. 

Have been using the app for years and in my opinion is the best one out there.

### 5/5 — Costa Rhu

*2017-11-16, version 1.23*

You told me to take the train to Nicholl Highway, and swim over to Costa Rhu
