### 1/5 — Use to work great

*2021-07-23*

This use to be my top choice for tracking buses. Some routes will not show all the buses on that route. I’m mainly referring to route 205. It shows the buses out of Central Garage. Does not show any buses from Meadowbrook Garage.
Please fix so I can fix my rating!!

### 1/5 — Broken

*2019-12-12, version 1.2*

App is broken. Crashes each time user attempts to view a schedule. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Needs improvement

*2018-04-14, version 1.2*

Having used this app on Android, I’m really disappointed in this IOS version. The pop-up ads make the unpaid version almost unusable. I paid to get rid of the ads and hoped the paid version would have more functionality but all I got for paying was just no ads.  Not being able to save specific routes as favorites requires you to go thru a complete search setup every time you need to check a schedule. The schedules seem to be current and updated just takes some key strokes to get them, something you only have to do once on the Android version. 

I will adjust my rating if the app improves but, I’m not optimistic that will happen when I look at the update history. Looks like the developer has stopped trying to improve this app and I see no way to make contact with them to offer suggestions.

### 1/5 — Good on Android but...

*2018-03-26, version 1.2*

I was thinking this IOS version would be the same as the Android version. I WAS WRONG. Unlike the Android version, you can’t pull up a schedule between specific stops on specific dates then save that “run” for future quick reference. You have to go thru the entire process of selecting specific stops and dates every time you need to check a schedule. The Android version is great BUT, THIS VERSION IS NOT WORTH PAYING FOR. 

The way this app presents ads on the unpaid version makes it almost unusable.

Since the maker of this app has offered no response to this or other reviews, I have to assume he no longer cares about improving it so I have lowered my rating from 2 stars to 1.

### 1/5 — Paid for an app, still have ads

*2017-09-24, version 1.0*

This is the only app I have ever paid for and drill have ads. If I pay you money please don’t spam me with more ads. Complete crap.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-04-05, version 1.2*

Never works don’t download it.

### 1/5 — Tracker? What tracker?

*2025-09-20, version 1.2*

The tracker portion has never worked despite updating software and iOS  version, reinstalling software, and copious cursing.

The schedule timetable is correct some of the time. 
UTA has no reliable way to show when trains are on time or delayed.

### 1/5 — Upset

*2025-06-20, version 1.2*

The App needs a serious update because it doesn’t really work for the tracking of buses or trains it is working on old data and doesn’t work with the new gps on the bus or train

### 1/5 — doesn’t track the buses

*2025-04-01, version 1.2*

you’d be better off memorizing the bus schedule and praying to god

### 1/5 — Scammy app

*2025-02-14, version 1.2*

WARNING: THIS APP IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH UTA IN ANY WAY. It’s monetized and the owner makes a killing off your data and your ads. Do not download this app if you can help it.

### 1/5 — Won’t work want more

*2025-01-04, version 1.2*

I payed for the no ads, and whatever but now it just doesn’t work, never loads trying to use 800 buses

### 1/5 — Please update

*2024-12-26, version 1.2*

There are some routes that for some reason when I try to track it just doesn’t show up. FrontRunner, 806, 807 are just the ones I’ve found. This is a nice app otherwise but I need all my routes to work and as a UTA driver I’d love to recommend this app to people in addition to the transit app.

### 1/5 — Upset

*2024-10-30*

App doesn’t seem to be working properly won’t open all of the time when it does it does not show all of the vehicles that are in the system at all times and I can’t get it to work properly when I need it to work correctly

### 1/5 — Abandoned

*2022-08-10, version 1.2*

This was a good reliable app until very recently. Doesn't update schedules or show train location anymore. Too bad

### 5/5 — Seems to have overcome issues

*2026-03-17, version 1.2*

I’ve been using this for several years now and haven’t had any issues with it, so I’m not sure how accurate the previous negative reviews are

### 5/5 — Works great

*2024-08-03, version 1.2*

Very accurately tracks the front runner so I know exactly how to plan my commute.

### 5/5 — Best and simplest app for UTA

*2021-11-22, version 1.2*

It’s kind of hard to believe UTA can’t make an app this clean and simple. Good job Jeffrey.

### 5/5 — Please fix loading for tracker page

*2020-01-22, version 1.2*

”Update”1/22/20

Working again!  Hurray!

App will not load tracker info anymore!  When I click on the route it just shows a continuously loading icon but never loads the tracker page.  Please fix ASAP! 

“Original review “
Really like using this app!  Occasionally it does a map update or something, and the blue route and stops on the map disappear.  Hope they can fix this.

Also, could the feature to change the countdown time between train location updates be added?  I saw it on the Android version and thought it would be nice to have on this version.

Again I really love using this app and hope it continues to be improved!

Thanks!

### 3/5 — Update

*2019-12-07, version 1.2*

This app doesn’t work anymore. It keeps kicking me out when I try to get the schedule

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-08-11, version 1.2*

Great app when it works, but it currently doesn’t. The Trax schedule changed recently but this app still shows the old times, so it’s worse than useless (showing up for a train 2 minutes after it left is the worst!). Also the train location tracker function isn’t working either.

This app worked well for me for a couple months but now I’ve deleted it from my phone. I’ll have to just use the UTA website for the Trax schedule.
