Enjoy your trip

Can’t get it to work.

Clicked open and it gets stuck on the first window. Useless

Bus driver on their own schedule

The quality of Calgary transit services is deteriorating every year. You raise the price each year and the quality of service decreases every year. Bus drivers don’t care about being on time they are always late and don’t care to follow the schedule.

Only major cities included

If you're outside of a major metropolitan area this app won't acknowledge any transportation options. As for how well it handles the options it does offer, I don't know how it does because even if I did have my location inside the small area of coverage, I'm not going to stay with that area. Useless and plenty of other well established options.

Poor quality app

It has a very basic, clunky design. I accidentally remove a stop from my favourites list at least once a week because the buttons are so close together and poorly labeled. For someone with ADHD, there is SOOO much going on it’s difficult to quickly view the info I’m looking for. Also, the arrival times list seems to open to cached data and has a VERY delayed refresh before showing current data. I open the app, it has a list of times, then 10 seconds later the whole list changes. It also is often unreliable - although I’m not sure if that’s the fault of the app or the transit data source they’re pulling from. All around an absolutely terrible user experience.

Not sure why you are having a terrible experience when thousands others always praise this app. No problem, i hope you find the app that meets your expectations.

Trash

I’m standing at the bus stop definitely deleting it

How can you search for a certain route? Very annoying. Almost useless.

Response from developer

Please click on the search and plan input field in the centre and then select route option. Anything then what you will enter in the field will be searched as route.

Garbage

I have my location services on and the app is garbage now.
Does not work at all.

Response from developer

I can help you learn how to use the app:) Hi there, can you please contact me at techyappsrt@gmail.com?

Can approve

I got rid of my car and started taking bus.

The direct routes are great but you do not require these routes.

To get to off main routes I have to use take some ridiculous routes and times to get to my destination.

To get to my destination I have to try using other locations near my destination to get where I want to go with out taking overly long time.

Example: going from Henderson hwy and chief peguis shows shows that you have to take two buses on two different routes where you have a 15 minute walk on one and approximately 2 kilometres walk on the other when in fact you can take one bus with a 5 minute walk which is a few minutes more than routes chosen to catch. When you can take one bus which drops you off at the door of your destination. But it did not show this route. I have found this is the fact on many of the routes.

Thank you for your feedback. I will work on updating the algorithm 🙏

Stupidest app ever

Doesn’t Effin help when you get stuck and it won’t return from screen it wants you on.
Absolutely not intuitive and locks you on a screen that doesn’t help.
Only gave it one star because it wouldn’t let me give it none.
Should get negative 100.
Let me send this you useless app

Response from developer

We have thousands of users who love this app and are very appreciative to us over emails on how this app has made their transit so easy. It’s unfortunate that you did not like this app, which is okay as you are not our right user anyways. We wish you good luck to find something that will make you happy.

Great App!

I deleted my other transit apps - what else do I need to say? ❤️🚌❤️📱❤️

Response from developer

Thank you so much for saying that. This means a lot to me :)

Good up, wish it would be for Canada only

UPDATE: App is working again

The app is been down for a few day now. Every time I try to open it, it flickers and stays blank.

Response from developer

Thank you for the update and glad to know that bug has been resolved :) Hi there, can you please email me to get in touch at techyappsrt@gmail.com I would like to resolve this for you.

Fixed!!!!

The issue with the bus station numbers and for the plan your trip functionality for Winnipeg has been fixed. Thanks for listening!

Response from developer

Thank you for your positive review :). Highly appreciated!

Shorter Sampling Intervals Needed

A great app, but sampling interval needs to be shorter.

Response from developer

Hi there, could you please send me an email at transitlinesapp@gmail.com with little more detail and we can make this work for you.

Wonderful

It was broken and I emailed the developer and he got back to me and let me know he had looked into it and fixed it right away!

Response from developer

Update: Thank you for your kind words :) Hi there, could you please send me more details at techyappsrt@gmail.com with information like which city you tried with and what is broken?

Smart watch

When will this app be available on the Fitbit versa 2 smart watch? As that would be a great option.

Response from developer

Hi there, thanks for bringing that up. We currently have work going on for that.

Pointless

App has a feature to enable you to change the date and time of the journey so that you can plan in advance. However, this doesn’t work at all and will just give you the journey details for the current time

Response from developer

Hi Cardiff_gal, this has been resolved. Cheers!

Not user friendly , maybe ?

Not the easiest app to use , may be better if I play around n or a little more .
Not able to find all bus stops on some routes in area. Need to see where actual stops are located in order the walk to them, if not familiar with area of city that I’m in.

Response from developer

Hi kevmrr, thank you for letting me know the kind of issue you are facing with the app. I will make sure that next update will make it easier for you to locate stops, for example - finding stops throughout the city just by moving around the map, etc!
