User reviews

Great tracking app

Great app with great features! Made it easy to track my child and ensure that we were on time for the bus. This app made my school year a lot less stressful.

Good when it works

It’s a decent, simple app when it works. But it is generally buggy. Also it’s notification function of alerting you when the bus is 10 or 15 min out never works. Please fix this and add another notification to alert parents when the bus reaches its destination!

Excellent app for tracking when your child will come home

Great app for tracking when your child will come home from camp. Knowing that they got on the bus and got to school safely as well.

Putting my mind at ease with the notifications

Easy to use, live notifications, thankful my child’s school utilizes this app. A+

Worst tracking software ever

No idea why anyone would ever want to use this. It does not stay logged in long enough to do anything. Randomly logs you out and makes you re-register over and over and over again. People administering school or camp busing would be well advised to look elsewhere for their busing tracking software vendor.
