There are moments where the times of the bus routes won’t even show up and it can sometimes be super inaccurate. It always glitches and never works in cases I need it to.
This app is good but Maize bus is more useful and is easier to use. I recommend it.
Hands down one of the best transit apps for UMich students and staff!
Quick response to small issue. Thanks. Simple map and very easy to read.
I use this app every single day to track when my bus is coming. Sadly it keeps saying “check internet connection” now and won’t let me view any of the routes. Several others are encountering this issue as well. Go to safari to the actual magic bus website and save the webpage as an app. That is the best workaround for now. 😢

I can’t even count how many times since my freshman year where I’ve been waiting at a bus stop for a M-Bus but it never shows up even though the app is telling me that there’s a bus!! At least if the buses came at the time the app says they are coming, I could plan better but instead I get my hopes up and end up late to my classes and clinicals.

Either the buses are horribly manages, or the app is, or both. Whatever the reason, the app is constantly wrong about bud arrival times. Sure is fun standing outside waiting for a bus that never arrives in the Michigan winter!
yay
Love this bus tracker. It’s 100% accurate to the bus schedules
Amazing app works so well and extremely easy to use! So accurate and is updated well with route changes
no direction arrows on routes, time predications are j wrong, and commuter south is janky
It is a much better app than the official school one.
This one actually works. Enough said
Works great and is very useful. Usually when it doesn’t work, I assume it’s probably because the m transit live map isn’t working.
ACTUAL LEGEND, UMICH CAUGHT LACKIN FR
There is no viable alternative
By far best bus app for Ann Arbor Michigan students
can't say enough about this app. it's one million times better than UM's garbage bus tracker. it's easy to use, it's accurate, it's cute, it's everything you could hope for. UM should be paying this guy
This tracker has helped me catch busses to my classes and around campus. The app literally has live updates. A bus will pass in front of you and you will see it on the app. Highly recommend this app over the others. Thanks Efe! Good luck to everyone
how does a student make a better app than a school with a 46 quadrillion dollar fund? I don’t know ask the university of michigan man.
