### 1/5 — App is not working

*2024-09-26, version 1.88*

I think app owner do not check there app, this app is not working from long time. How we can navigate our child. As it’s not showing location of bus and we do not track our kids. So resolve the issue.

### 1/5 — No response ever

*2024-09-26, version 1.88*

What can I expect from them. No response at all. Send many emails, filled up concern forms. But no words from them. They don’t care the users because they are getting business (money)from CBE.

### 1/5 — No App Support

*2024-09-04, version 1.88*

I have been trying to get into my app as i forgot my password but no one is responding to my email neither have i received any link to reset my password. Last 2 years I used this app , it freezes all the time. Hopefully whenever i get access it wont be the same experience.

### 1/5 — A Useless App for School Bus Tracking

*2024-09-03, version 1.88*

This school bus tracking app is a complete waste of time and effort. It fails to provide accurate location information for student drop-offs and pickups, making it virtually useless for parents trying to monitor their children's transportation. The developer needs to go back to the drawing board and create a more functional and user-friendly app. It's disheartening to see that the Calgary education system is relying on such a substandard piece of app. It's time for a major overhaul.Please, take action and develop a better solution

### 1/5 — Glitchy and not accurate

*2024-08-29, version 1.88*

Even the sign-in wasn’t working I had to close and reopen the app 6X just to log-in. Half the time the bus doesn’t move and the ETA / delay communications are far and few between. Good concept but need significant improvement and updates!

### 1/5 — Availability in other stores

*2024-08-26, version 1.88*

Hi; you should make this app available in international stores as many of parents are migrated form other countries and can not use the app with out changing their store; which is very frustrating. 
Thank you.

### 1/5 — So many issues

*2024-01-29, version 1.88*

The app freezes and makes it look like the bus is far away, when in fact it’s driving past your house and you’re missing the bus. This happens so often. This needs to be fixed.

### 1/5 — Needs proper update!

*2024-01-17, version 1.88*

The app hardly ever opens anymore and on the rare occasion when it does it takes over 10 minutes to load up. It’s been over a year since it was updated, it needs a new update asap!

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2023-10-24, version 1.88*

Absolute garbage the app is so out dated and   Useless. 

Doesn’t work half the time.

### 1/5 — Very delayed gps location

*2023-10-05, version 1.88*

Not a useful app. Refreshing is too long. Should be live. Bus has come and gone minutes ago but the app doesn’t show that the bus has even come yet.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2023-09-20, version 1.88*

Save login info is not working. Crucial feature, please consider fixing.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-09-13, version 1.88*

What’s the point of enabling notifications if you can’t alert me that my child’s school bus is approaching the designated stop? Sometimes the bus arrives waaaay earlier than scheduled and my child risks being stranded at the stop.

### 1/5 — Never works

*2023-09-13, version 1.88*

My routes, go to a school and come back from the school, have only 1 bus stop at the school. GPS location has never moved. 
Southland responded to use this junk when I complained about bus delay without any notice (no email, nothing from the school when it was -20 degrees).

### 1/5 — Not found in iPhone 11

*2023-06-12, version 1.88*

Cannot find this app in apple 11, not sure why.

### 1/5 — Can’t register

*2023-05-31, version 1.88*

Every time I want to register the website of this app just says 404 not found. Which means it’s probably impossible to register unless the developer fixes this issue.

### 1/5 — Bus root not on the system

*2022-12-21, version 1.88*

I have tried to add bus route but our school bus route not exist in the system, please update data base to show all the bus routes

### 1/5 — Unable to register

*2022-12-20, version 1.88*

The app won’t let me even register?

### 1/5 — Horrendous

*2022-11-16, version 1.87*

If you were from 1990’s this app would look dated and it still wouldn’t work …

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work..

*2026-03-05, version 1.88*

Too often the app doesn’t even open. Gets frustrating when you’re trying to track your little ones on the bus or trying to find out where the bus is so you’re not waiting for forever in the cold. The app desperately needs fixes and would be much appreciated by all parents having to use it.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-11-28, version 1.88*

This is probably the worst outdated app I’ve ever had the misfortune to use. Unfortunately I don’t have much choice unless I want the kids to be standing at the bus stop all day when it’s been cancelled 🙄
Surely with today’s technology the bus company can do better? I can track where my Timmie’s delivery is in real time but god knows where my kids are!!!

### 1/5 — Pathetic App, useless

*2025-09-05, version 1.88*

Very bad experience so far. Not user friendly, dont have any options to add routes or do any change once registered. I added a route for my child, later on realised that its only morning route. Now i am unable to find any option to add the PM route. This app is beyond pathetic. I have used atleast 2 other bus app of different service providers, they were great to use.

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2025-09-05, version 1.88*

No way to delete or change your personal information. Really poorly designed app overall

### 1/5 — Hands down worst app ever

*2025-09-02, version 1.88*

Need major overhaul

### 1/5 — Already Bad - day before 1st day of school

*2025-09-02, version 1.88*

I can see the CBE didn’t let a dismally rated App deter them from switching from another app that actually worked… I hope they aren’t paying for this.

### 1/5 — Poooo

*2025-09-01, version 1.88*

Uh idk i just dont like this app

### 1/5 — Worst app ever used

*2024-12-12, version 1.88*

Nothing works on this.. bus sometimes will show same location for several months

### 1/5 — Idea is great, but it’s very poorly executed

*2024-10-22, version 1.88*

Maybe it works better for country pickups where it takes 10 min to get to the next stop, but for the city, it’s not reliably accurate at all. 

Since it takes 1 minute for the bus location to refresh; in town the stops are so close together that the bus can hit multiple stops before the refresh. The minute countdown only seems to work when the app is open, if you close the app, or your phone blacks out, the timer restarts at 59s. Sooo annoying. 

It’s also just inaccurate in general. Bus location won’t refresh at all for a long time and then it skips 4 stops. 
I really wish they could make this more accurate and in real time. Or make the refresh time like 10 seconds max.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-10-09, version 1.88*

Have never gotten the app to work. Tried on multiple devices and re-download. Just freezes at the open screen.

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-21, version 1.88*

The app works great. You have to register on the website first and input the current school year ID  before you download the app to use it. Got that from the school. Had to select the routes I wanted to track on the website first and then the info shows in the app for the current school year.  

The tracker is about a minute delayed but it does refresh. 

Alerts are really useful too when a bus is delayed on a snow day or whenever.

### 5/5 — Actually works pretty well.

*2020-10-01, version 1.86*

The reason this app has so many security aspects to it is nobody wants a registered sex offender waiting to pick your kids up at the bus stop.  So yeah, I get it’s a pain to get the codes, but basically the school is not going to hand them out to pedophiles.  Which I like.  Generally it’s seamless once you get it going.

### 4/5 — 😭

*2026-03-10, version 1.88*

I like it I don’t get why ppl hate it so much it’s fine

### 2/5 — Not really real-time

*2022-10-27, version 1.87*

I have to close the app and reopen it if I want to see where the bus is at. The bus is just stuck in one location otherwise.

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2022-09-09, version 1.87*

Added 2 routes 3 days ago. Worked that day. Since then it says not route added. I go to the website and there’s still two routes in my profile.

### 2/5 — Super Frustrating

*2022-03-09, version 1.87*

Worked (some days) for part of the year. Now a new driver and the bus is “parked” every day at Mount Royal. No reply from support when I asked them to update the tracker. Helpful when it works but too unreliable to be worth anything.

### 2/5 — Disorganized in the first few weeks

*2020-01-30, version 1.86*

The app works, the gps on the buses work, but wrong bus is shown in the app. As I understood, it is not due to technical issues, but due to improper assignment of buses/gps to be shown on the app.
