### 4/5 — Modifying bus routes

*2026-04-15, version 4.0.20*

Changes in routes should be reflected(e.g. Northside Dr is currently unavailable)

### 1/5 — Too few buses

*2024-04-10, version 4.0.19*

Why so few buses used? Why do drivers take frequent breaks parked with no movement for 15 minutes at a time? leaving students stranded and late for class? Very poor service. Seems to be something you advertise to prospective student families to show how awesome tech is on paper.

### 2/5 — Buses show inaccurate locations

*2023-01-08, version 4.0.11*

The bus drivers don’t turn on their gps so we don’t know where they are and it’s so annoying

### 3/5 — Missing routes

*2021-10-10, version 4.0.5*

Needs to add the routes

### 3/5 — Frustrating “zoom out” behavior

*2021-08-11, version 4.0.5*

Great job on the app! Two things though:
1. Every time I zoom into the app, it zooms me back out if I’m moving. Its super annoying to use if I’m walking for that reason. Please get rid of that.
2. The names of the routes are not legible. Consider changing the UI there to have it fit.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2021-03-29, version 4.0.4*

The time estimates are wrong 100% of the time, the buses randomly stop for ten minute periods, the second biggest route (red) isn’t even on here

### 5/5 — Anonymously Secure Brilliance

*2020-01-09, version 4.0.2*

F* Superb for STEM minded peeps! Hit me up Alex if you want some free legal audit help to extend this kickstarter development further than your dreams could take you! Everyone needs some crowd source funding! Its the AmeriCorps way!!!

### 2/5 — Worst UI

*2019-11-21, version 4.0.2*

I really dislike the UI of this app. I cannot even see the complete name of the bus routes.

### 5/5 — Simple and Practically Useful

*2019-08-23, version 4.0.1*

It solely focuses on GT campus. The map is always going to be the same map, it usually does not allow you to span to other areas outside campus (and use it like a google map), which makes it purely goal-oriented.

It does not retrieve your location information! Given GT students are mostly familiar with the campus, the need for knowing her/his current location on campus by using the app is dispensable. Besides, I personally consider location information as part of my privacy, and the app serves the purpose without getting into this “turbid water” by not asking for users’ location. Of course, the sole focus on only GT campus this relatively small area also helps contribute to that.

Even without your real time location, the app still tells you the names of the bus stops, shows buses’ current locations, and predicts the bus arriving time!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2019-08-22, version 4.0.1*

Love this app the only qualm I have is it now has no predictions for the buses but since you can see where they are that helps.

If you fix the predictions that’d be great! Way better than the new app.
