### 1/5 — What a waste of my time

*2013-01-31*

I think I found info on 3 bus lines in Manhattan. Does not work at all in Staten Island or Bronx

### 1/5 — not good

*2013-01-23*

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2019-11-02*

It doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on Roosevelt Island

*2019-05-16*

Tried to use it while on Roosevelt Island and even though it had my location correct, it would only show buses in Manhattan.

### 1/5 — Missing stops/routes

*2019-05-03*

I’m standing at a stop for the Q102.  The only stops buses appearing are in Manhattan - on the other side of the East River. Useless for me.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2014-01-13*

No bus info

### 1/5 — According to this app...

*2013-10-13*

I don't live in NYC, great! ^_^ /s

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2013-07-29*

What's the use for this app if all the stop I use say no MTA information for this stop. This is a joke. Do not dl.

### 1/5 — you decide..........

*2013-07-21*

I'm standing now on Lex. with 125th, next to me no less than 6 deferent bus stops, but the app shows nothing.... So you decide.....

### 1/5 — I wish!

*2013-07-08*

If only! This is a great idea from MTA buses, but none of the stops have any info to display. I would definitely use buses more if something like this was available.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2013-05-27*

Have not found one bus stop where there is ANY data available - an incredible waste of time

### 1/5 — No Way

*2013-03-05*

This app is terrible. There's no MTA info for any of the buses. Don't waste your time with this app.  The only reason I gave it 1 star is because I had to in order to submit this review.

### 5/5 — You’re not a real New Yorker if you don’t use this app!

*2024-08-05*

Im shocked this app is so lowly rated. This is the ONLY accurate source for real time bus updates and it will save your day/life. I rave about it at dinner parties! 🍷

### 5/5 — Worked So Well that I Paid For It

*2014-10-15*

What else can I say.  It pretty much accurately predicts when the next bus is coming.  I liked it so much that I paid for it.

### 4/5 — it does the job

*2017-03-10*

good app but need to improve UI

### 3/5 — Very Nice App for Some New York City Travel

*2020-01-18*

Around Manhattan, south of 116th Street this is great. For some reason, north of 116th Street it thinks I have left NYC. News flash to the app designers - Manhattan extends to Bakers Field at 217th Street. NYC covers 400 square miles including this.

### 2/5 — Ok

*2015-06-07*

Where is the Q103?  The bus exists but it's not on your map!!
