### 1/5 — 진짜 뭐지

*2025-10-09*

UI는 똥이고 도착 예정 알림은 버스 이미 진작 도착해서 타고가다가 오는데 이거 고쳐야하는거 아닌가요

### 1/5 — 운행사 승인거부

*2025-09-28*

도대체 출근 당일날까지 승인 안 해주는건 뭐죠? 못 탈뻔 했잖아
버스기사한테 물어보면 쿠팡측에 물어보라 하고 쿠팡측에 물어보면 버스기사 아저씨한테 애기하라 하고 어쩌라는건지 그지같은 시스템이네요
ㅈ같음 0점은 없냐?
안돼도 개무시하고 타야지
지들이 책임전가하고 해결 안 해주는데 나보고 어쩌라고

### 3/5 — 몇시에 타야하는지는 나와야하지않을까요..?

*2025-08-07, version 2.0.18*

이게 없네

### 1/5 — 최악입니다

*2025-07-21*

쿠팡 셔틀 때문에 앱 깔았는데 ui 너무 구리고 불편해요. 앱도 어딜 들어가도 이상한 팝업 뜨고 계속 어떤 사항에 동의하냐 물어봐요. 엄청 불편합니다;; 제일 문제인 점은 문의사항이나 회원 탈퇴를 하는 곳이 앱 내에 존재하지 않아요. 인터넷으로 해야 한다는데 어디서 해야하는지도 모르겠고 그럼 앱이 왜 존재하는지 의문입니다. 헬로버스 회원 탈퇴는 인터넷으로 해지해야한다고 약관에 적혀있더라구요. 근데 헬로버스 사이트에 들어가도 개인이면 권한이 없다고 로그인이 안 됩니다. 그럼 왜 회원가입을 할 수 있게 한 건지. 정말 구리고요. 앞으로는 헬로버스 앱 쓰기 싫어서라도 다른 노선에서 저스 타야겠습니다.

### 1/5 — 버그 수정 좀 해주세요 제발
