Doesn't work at all

This is the worst and the only reason to actually use it is for the digital card.
It always logs me out. The "real time arrivals" does show the actual real time, it just shows the time it's "supposed" to arrive, as soon as the time time passes it just goes to the next scheduled time and doesn't let you know how far the bus actually is.
They are still showing the schedule for the 101 even though it's suspended.
Everything about this app is archaic and useless
4/13 update still trash app. Still signs me out all the time. Real time is just the time on schedule not where the bus actually is

Terrible

The only saving grace is the fact that you can purchase tickets on your phone. The bus schedule is very inaccurate and if you have a privacy screen, forget about using their app all together. They need to update either the app or allow their scanners to work with privacy screens.

Confusing and unreadable

I started to with this app couldn’t for the life of me figure it out. I know my way around but never ride the bus and don’t know my streets, roads and stops. If a tourist were to come and try to use this app, it would be so useless. It gives you lists of different routes, but you don’t understand them because you don’t even know where you’re going. It doesn’t even have an option of a map so you can at least click where you know you’re trying to go and where you are. I prefer the MyRide app, but apparently it’s no longer working and now we have to use this one. I’m better off going on Google maps at least that one is more easier to maneuver and you have more of a general idea of where you’re going. What stops of a route to take.

Excuse me where’s my MyRide?

I was told it was moving to this app and everything. Sure I can do the all in 1 app but where’s is the option to view where is my bus physically?! Y’all took that app away which is the best app in my opinion and now it’s gone and I’m supposed to use this app real time arrivals?! I rather look at my bus physically coming in map view than the estimated time. Please update this app with the MyRide features like we were told!

Terrible

As many have said, the app runs poorly and was poorly designed. Broward County transit sucks and you can never count on the buses being on time. The real time arrival is a joke that is not reliable.
