Malfunctioning August 2026

Location Maps not loading on live activity, just a white screen, this use to work but not anymore. alerts are not received on requested times only when 3 to 4 minutes away instead of 10 as requested.

Terrible App DO NOT RECOMMEND

The app is for school bus riding and it hardly ever keeps up with the students on the bus. Doesn’t update the location very often and it’s super slow and annoying. Try to use a different one that actually works, because this one doesn’t.

Great app!

This app is so helpful. It shows where the bus is in relationship to the bus stop, so our kids can track how far away it is from picking them up at the stop. There are alerts that can be set for when the kids have been dropped at school, when the bus has left school to come back home, and alerts as to how many minutes away the bus is from picking up and/or dropping off. There are easy notifications from the district with route changes and time changes. I really appreciate this app. It brings a lot of peace of mind as a parent. There is nothing I would add or change about this app! It's amazing.

Why cant i see location??

The school website advertises i can track my kids location while on the bus yet i only get notified when she gets on? I also have an alert turned on to notify me when bus is 5 minutes away and i have yet to receive one notification!!

Slow

This smart tag application is incredibly slow to load. The intervals in which it tracks GPS and reports it back are sometimes 10 minutes behind where the actual bus has your child. Absolute garbage.
