Extremely unreliable. ### 1/5 — Not working *2023-04-21* Freezing for ages ### 1/5 — unstable and unreliable *2020-10-18* app info not refreshed on sundays, and app crashes whenever i open the bus info ### 1/5 — Reaction is slow and hard to use *2018-08-12* The time is never accurate and the app is really slow. I doubt whether the developers are really working on optimizing the app since there are only many reliable apps showing the right bus timing. This is really a bad experience in NUS considering the other nice facilities. ### 1/5 — Worst app I have ever seen *2017-05-14* The bus will never be on time. Also it will be canceled frequently. ### 1/5 — Bad app dontt dowload *2016-03-17, version 2.0.1* Worst App ever. Timings not accurate. App Crashes ### 1/5 — No location navigation available after update! *2015-02-05* No location navigation available after update! ### 1/5 — Irritating app *2015-01-18* This was a good idea and if it worked would be great. First, it does not tell you the bus schedule. If all buses were listed with arrival times, this would not be a problem. But, at any given time over half the buses are not listed, so it really doesn't help. Also, the app for forces a compass calibration on iPhone, which is clearly not needed as it is just receiving text information and not orienting a map. Overall, this was likely the final year project of some student who did a mediocre job then left and now there is no follow up or incentive to make the app helpful. ### 1/5 — Worst most useless app *2014-08-18* This app is suppose to tell you when he bus arrives and it literally will fail at it's intended function outside of kent ridge. It never arrives in the time it states at the bukit timah campus or the opposite botanic gardens stop. Half of the time you open the app, there is no time to arrival displayed at all like someone turned off the app or something. Since the app is designed to tell you time and the aforementioned problems happen almost 100% of the time, the app is utterly useless. I would give it negative stars if possible. ### 1/5 — Unreliable *2012-08-13* Failed to display arrival time. Please fix. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 最近有bug！ *2025-11-06* 安卓和苹果的用户都打不开，界面空白一直在转圈。麻烦速速修复，拜托了🙏！ ### 5/5 — Pretty accurate *2025-08-29* Given that the last and only review of this app was from 10 years ago, I thought that I should provide an update. This app is quite accurate and very helpful. I put the title as “pretty accurate” because sometimes the bus comes a minute or two early and leaves a little early, but I just know now to get there 5 min ahead of schedule just in case, although I’ve seen the bus drivers wait or stop and pick people up if they see you running! ### 5/5 — Frequent used *2017-01-09* Good APP, used everyday and very convenient ### 4/5 — Works but confusing *2023-08-16* It works well and is accurate. But knowing which direction of the times of buses can be confusing. ### 3/5 — It works *2021-10-14* But could be better ### 3/5 — iphone xr cannot use it *2021-03-08* can you help me solve ### 3/5 — Nice new version *2019-03-30, version 3.0* Am glad to see the app is updated. Would be good to have iPad Pro optimisation and be able to use the app with the iPad upside down. ### 2/5 — Needs Fixing *2024-07-02* The app works great when you are on campus but nothing loads when you are not connected to NUS wifi. Was very confused at first, thinking my cellular data was just not working before I realized the app just doesn’t work. Once connected to NUS wifi, everything loads almost instantly ### 2/5 — No bus status on Sunday *2019-04-21, version 3.0* Should provide shuttle bus status on Sunday/PH as well, especially during exam period. Student need to look for food (when study in central Library) at Utown as the old McDonald’s is no longer available. ### 2/5 — NOt a good app *2016-02-03, version 2.0.1* This is a poor app. Times displayed are not reliable and can change at the last minute. It is also down sometimes. Needs a revamp --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
