Useless and uses all resources of my iPhone 6s

Just don't bother, up to this version.it is extreme slow, and freezes, and it just doesn't freeze by itself, it even freezes your complete iPhone.
Next so that it does not give you any information, but it adds advertising

Unbelievably terrible and slow!

Just by itself, this app is a master class in what not to do in UX.

This app is roughly ten times slower than using the website, and I'm not even exaggerating.

If you're using this app to find the next tram, first you're going to have to sit through a splash page. Then click through a menu to get to the next tram schedule. Then it'll load some banner ads first (because of course that's the biggest priority), and then spend about two minutes trying to download a meaningless decorative background that has no impact on how you use the site and isn't even aesthetically appealing. Of course, you have to wait for the background to finish downloading before you can choose your stop to view the next tram. The process from start to finish takes about 10 seconds on the website, and about 2 minutes with this stupid waste of time app. To add insult to injury the website doesn't even have a banner ad while this piece of trash does!

This app was so bad that my previous negative comment didn't go through and got deleted, and I re-typed this because I feel like people should be warned as to how bad this app is.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS APP! USE THE WEBSITE INSTEAD!
