### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-02-12, version 1.2.9*

Downloaded the app… could get no sense out of it! Just kept saying no journey available for my destination. A journey I have made numerous times. Reverted to good old timetable and stand and wait till one turns up… patience is key… amanha

### 1/5 — Very user unfriendly app

*2026-01-08, version 1.2.8*

Expect if you’re working for vamus algarve and knowing the public transportation network and the bus stops numbers. 

Each bus stop has a unique bus stop number. When I am looking for a bus stop I very often get two stops with the same name but different bus stop numbers e.g. “1491 | Tavira (EB D. Paio) “1492 | Tavira (EB D. Paio)”. Which one should I take? Probably it is the same bus stop, going in different directions. This is really useless information for the user of the app. 
But I get different results, for choosing different bus stops numbers with the same bus stop name.

The map is a really cool and helpful feature in finding a bus stop.  But why are the lines (and bus stops) not showing the numbers of the bus Lines?  This would be so helpful to look up the time tables of the bus lines like in good old times.

Because if your journey gets complicated, you’re    changing the bus lines you’re mostly getting the message “no journey“. (Expect you are working for vamus algarve and knowing network or you are the designer of this app.)

Overall the user experience is very frustrating. (I decided in the end to ask the service at the terminal.) The app expect user to know too much of the public transportation system.

Please connect with other European countries public transportation apps to make this app useful for users.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-10-09, version 1.1.15*

Bad

### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2025-08-17, version 1.1.15*

Não fala nada com nada? 
Qual é a função desse aplicativo? 
Se for verificar horários, isso não atende nenhum usuário!

### 2/5 — Not working properly!

*2025-07-20, version 1.1.15*

There’s always something wrong with the app. Doesn’t load stations, doesn’t accept data, doesn’t show schedule, constant failure messages. Good idea but poor execution! Developers unable to fix issues.

### 2/5 — Péssima

*2025-02-26, version 1.1.15*

Uma aplicação muito mal elaborada. Não há informações sobre horários e o usuário fica perdido sem saber o que fazer.
Horrível.

### 3/5 — Useful but problematic

*2025-01-25, version 1.1.15*

This app works for the official bus lines of the Algarve, excluding some long distance and private networks. Happily, Google (not apple) maps has the Vamus system loaded presently so use that first. But to see maps of the bus routes, coverage, stops, and more, use Vamus. First choose which city, or Vamus for the region, from button at top right. Then very slowly enter the location name or stop numbers for your trip. App desperately needs improvement …

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-01-16, version 1.1.15*

You have to load a new QR code every time if you buy a monthly pass. There seems to be no way to build trips connecting buses. The app is clunky and you’re better off using google maps 95% of the time.

### 1/5 — Position détection Not working - useless

*2024-12-30, version 1.1.15*

Thé app détects my position during start correctly. But when I want to use thé Go to function to get a route it tells me, it does Not know any more where i am. I also dont know which Bus Station is thé next (a normal app would tell me this) . So thé App is completely useless if I havé no détailed plan of all routes and all Bus stations in paper Format. 

 I tried to enter thé names of thé stations from google maps. This is a nightmare. PLEASE let the user enter at least 4 to 5 letters until you start searching for stations. It is not possible to enter the letters except with 5 seconds waiting time between them.

### 1/5 — Não presta

*2024-12-02, version 1.1.15*

Não funcionará, debita valores dos passes mensais e não disponibiliza o passe para o uso. Impossível falar com qualquer pessoa dessa empresa, não tem número para ligar e não respondem ao email! Um lixo de aplicativo e empresa!
