Nothing loads, app is broken, has been for the last few weeks,

For at least the last few weeks schedules don’t load, no one has done anything to fix this. The app is completely useless now.

No trips Found

This was the best app to know about transportation time, lately, despite the updates, you can’t find the trips for NJT, I can’t understand how the developer make an update before to check if it is working.

App was really useful but stopped working a few weeks ago, no app updates to fix the issue and now it always says no trips found. Wish they would update and fix
