### 1/5 — 表示されない。更新もしない。

*2026-03-20*

京都市が外部委託している運営会社は本当に酷い。位置情報も表示されず、単なるバス停の位置がわかるだけ。こんなものに何億と税金をかけている。まったく使い物になりません。

### 1/5 — データが最新ではない

*2025-11-06*

ガラケーからスマホに変えてからずっと使い続けてきたアプリです。
使用頻度は時々使う程度ですが、目的地への到着時刻を選択すると色々と時間やバスの乗り継ぎなどの候補を表示してくれるので便利に使っていました。
ところが、久しぶりに使ってみたところ、新しくできた施設名には対応しておらず、いちいち最寄りのバス停を確認して選ばなくてはならず使いにくい…
最悪なのは、時刻表が更新されておらず、このアプリを信用して予定を組んだらバスの到着時刻が異なり、予定が狂ってしまいました。
ここまで使えない交通検索系アプリも珍しいです。
残念ながらアンインストールします。

### 2/5 — デフォルトで位置情報抜かれます

*2025-07-28*

よく使う検索履歴の保存など、便利な機能がない割に、位置情報を抜かれるなどマイナスがあるアプリ
地図もグラフィックが汚いし、検索条件が入れられないので面倒極まりない
Googleマップで良いし、乗り降り場所が決まってるからそれをそのままGoogle検索に入れるだけでもこのアプリよりは反応がいいです
ローカルにおく「アプリ」の良さが全くない

### 5/5 — 京都観光には必需品

*2025-05-01*

このアプリは、「金閣寺」や「清水寺」などの観光地名を入力しても、最寄りの駅やバス停までのルートを表示し、公共交通機関のルートも複数出てくる。
オーバーツーリズムの京都で、効率良く移動するためには必需品だ。実に良くできているので、観光ガイドブックの出番はなかった。

### 1/5 — 路線図なし

*2025-02-14*

路線図がないのが不便すぎる。

### 1/5 — 京都市内ならこれで十分

*2024-11-27*

iPadで使っています。
京都市内を移動するならこれで十分。
ただ、時々検索結果がおかしい事がある。例えば一乗寺木ノ本町から西大路御池まで移動する際に北8系統が候補に出てこない事がある。こう言った時は北大路駅を経由地に入れれば出てくるが若干不便だ。
なお、最近、iPadを機種変更したら、起動時にすぐアプリが落ちるようになり、使えなくなってしまった。

### 1/5 — Which bus do I take?

*2024-10-29*

Am I missing something, or does the app not tell you which bus number to take?  Without the bus number, it renders this app useless.

### 1/5 — あ上手く開かない❣️

*2024-10-23*

どうしても開くのが上手く行かない❣️

### 1/5 — 苦労して停留所名

*2024-10-16*

苦労して停留所名入れ、時刻を入れようとした途端アプリが落ちてしまう。何度やってもダメ。アプリをインストールしなおしても落ちてしまう

### 1/5 — 開きません

*2024-09-18*

ダウンロードしましたが開きません。
アンインストールしました。
前はよく使っていて便利だったのに残念だ
