How is this app still so rubbish?

I’m trying to plan a journey for five days from now, using well established bus and train routes and nope… nothing populates. Whoever is building this app needs to engage a proper user experience designer to do some user testing and fix this. It’s 2026, people. Get with the times.

It is (again) an easy delete for me. I’ll use Google maps instead to figure my travel out…

App is broken

No maps or fares will display even after reboot and checking Location Services are active. Both Cellular and WiFi enabled.

Useless use Google maps

Absolutely useless. I am visiting from overseas and got this to help me get about. Does not know business names or motel names. Google maps does and gives all the public transport options.

Good until it isn’t

Great app when things are running to plan. Several times though I’ve been caught out by a stop or service not in use - yet the journey planner still tells you to effing use it!
