Fake light rail data

The light rail data is inconsistent with the arrival time
The app shows that the L1 light rail arrive at 0715 but it arrive at 0712

Bus

Good to know for when I’m bus is early or very late

New Update to Tracking

this app is run by literal money grabbers changing the tracking system and applying it to only pro. worst app now, very disappointing i have used this app very regularly as i am an avid commuter and rely on this app. so to see that this app has unfortunately changed for the worst, i will have to not use this app anymore until they put the tracking back as it was before.
