### 1/5 — Worst Service!

*2026-01-25, version 5.3.20*

If I could give zero stars I would. Totally inaccurate information on bus service and arrivals.
Worse: my family and I were abruptly dropped off in the middle of nowhere at 10pm on a winter night by a driver who could not deliver us to our destination. He told us we would have to wait 30min for the next bus. No support, no guidance. And, an obscenity as he drove away in a bus “not in service”. 
If this is what you call a public service, I would hate to see how you treat those suffering.

Dropping this app as the most $#%*! I could possibly subscribe. Thanks for nothing!

### 5/5 — The app worked great for me!

*2025-12-23, version 5.3.20*

I’m sure why the reviews are bad for this app - I had accurate information, buses were on time, and it was all super easy.

### 1/5 — USE GOOGLE/APPLE MAPS

*2025-12-21, version 5.3.20*

Do not use this app at all. It’s more accurate on Apple/google maps.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2025-03-19, version 5.3.19*

The worst app ever it’s not even accurate and if u don’t bring a car you are screwed

### 1/5 — Worst transit app I’ve used

*2025-02-25, version 5.3.18*

The app and actual bus service are both terrible.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate bus times

*2025-02-14, version 5.3.18*

I walked to catch a bus at 11:13, couple minutes passed by and I called customer support. The employee on the line wasn’t very helpful or informative and said there had to be something wrong with my phone because he didn’t know where I was getting my departure times from. He said the next bus wasn’t until 12:50. The app is inaccurate and the customer service rep wasn’t great either.

### 1/5 — App as great as the bus service

*2025-02-09, version 5.3.17*

Terrible app, even worse bus service.   Incorrect info, inconsistent bus service, even zero stars would be generous.

### 1/5 — Why did they remove the full schedules?

*2025-01-02, version 5.3.17*

This app is now borderline useless since you can only see the current (real time) schedules.

I think all of us really need to see the full schedules, to plan departures accordingly.

I’m sad I deleted the old app.

### 1/5 — Awful app

*2025-01-02, version 5.3.17*

Why can’t I see the bus schedule at all? Why can I only see the currently running lines? This app is almost completely useless.

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2024-12-29, version 5.3.17*

1 Star is too generous for this wimpy excuse of an app. This made me late for work because of the inaccurate times. The only thing I got out of this was less money and a false sense of hope.
