Very good services from Broughty Ferry….. As nearly an 80 year I struggle to get over the bridge path to Queen Street…. Would be great to have a bus service to come along King Street.😁

Now useless

Used to be a really great app but it’s now rendered useless by the fact that there’s no real-time info regarding bus ETAs. Yes I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the app but it made absolutely no difference. Please fix it.

Dreadful

A truly dreadful app that should not exist, unless as an awful example of how not to do it. Ghastly user interface. Intrusive, app stopping, adverts make it worse. I persevered for months but have finally given up, in despair.

Used to be good, fraudulent ads now fill the whole screen

I have found this app useful in the past for finding real time information on bus arrival times in different parts of the country.

Now I find full screen ads, one being to tell me to update my PDF app. The most recent was a scam message falsely claiming to be from Apple telling me that my iPad’s security has been compromised!

I am unwilling to use this app further because of security concerns and have deleted the app.

Great app

Great app - but it’s stopped working. Please fix!

Ads, incorrect tracking

App is ok with a simple UI, but the constant adverts that pop up when you tap a stop are too much now, just what everyone wants to see when they might be in a hurry as well. For months the tracking has been incorrect for all buses in my area regardless of operator too: the route map doesn’t display correct times (I’m trying to catch a bus at 07:25 but the route map tells me it’s the 22:25, to give an example).

The app is alright

The app is good for bus times but every morning when I try to go to school it says the wrong time for the bus every morning as it says it takes longer for the bus to arrive at the stop then it actually does

Not so good

Used it for years but the lack of realtime bus info and the annoying adverts mean I’ll be moving on to something else.

Possible malware ads

Ordinarily I would give the app 5 star since it does exactly what it says on the tin, checks where the bus is and a generalised time on its arrival.

However, recently they has been a disturbing amount of “Your phone has X amount of virus’, download our app to get rid of them” ads that have been appearing. I can understand needing ads to make money, almost nothing is truly free. But the least you can do is to review what ads your allowing to advertise onto your app since it only takes one inattentive person to click and download that app for it to then be your problem.

What’s going on ?

Something wrong with this! Wasn’t until my daughter missed her school bus twice that I realised. Time is just not updating. Says bus is 10 mins away… then 11.. then seems to get stuck. It’s now saying 8 mins when the bus has long gone. Checked against another local app. Really frustrating. Been like it for
A week.

Fraudulent adverts

The ads on this app are now fraudulent faking system messages saying the iPhone is damaged.

Countdown stopped

This app has been the best since I started using it but recently it stopped having countdowns which is not nice unfortunately

Ads annoying

I’ve been using this for years, so much better for London buses, you can see where they are, that is until the ads popup. Not very helpful when you are rushing to the stop and want to know if you’ve already missed the bus. I agree with the other user who said they wouldn’t mind paying a subscription if it got rid of the ads.
Would’ve been 5 stars otherwise.

I’m 66 and live this app

It’s easy to use and I really like it as it gives you the name of all buses that are due not like other Apps that just give you their company buses and when they are due

Totally wrong!

Awful. Inaccurate. Now have to wait 1.5 hours for next bus.

Suspected Spam Advertising

Logged in this morning and got a spammy message about viruses and offering to clean them.

I DONT THINK SO.

You need to police the website good and proper because of this I’m less inclined to use the app!

Bus stands

Adds stop
