Can’t see font because of the colour

Although information is good I can’t see orange font on black background - especially in bright daylight. I’m usually looking at screen when outdoors at a bus stop

White font on black would be good

Zzzz

Absolutely not a good app, spend hundreds of thousands to change routes, and not a dollar for the correct operation of the application

When I move to a different city I can’t access the data

Currently I live in Toronto but I still want to track with Winnipeg transit. I cannot access it because there’s no stop near by. Unless I live in Winnipeg! Other apps can but not this one. I really hope the app developers can also do something to give transit fan a chance to access the data outside of Winnipeg Updates from 2025: Recently I went to a relative wedding, their place is on stories road, and that’s not too far away from Mc Philip, but this app somehow can’t track buses even a few 100 meters away from the stop, what the hell is your app? You can’t even track buses while you were in winnipeg! Can’t believe that happened, disappointing, I drop to 2/5 from 3/5 for the rating.

this used to be on time now it’s either late or too early with the bus schedules.

NOT ACCURATE!!!

Schedule changed since the bus route changed on June 29 but no one update the app!This app is killing me now for always causing me wait for 20min+ what would happen in Winter????

Bummy bus drivers missing bus stops on purpose

Works great

Works great for me

Great App, but has few glitches.

I think it is one of the best app for Winnipeg Transit, in terms of showing the updated waiting time.
However, I have been having a big issue recently with my bus stop. It doesn’t show the assigned bus, until there is only 3-4 minutes left, like that bus does come and go, but it is only shown on the app with few minutes left. It has been happening as of this last week, 19 May 2024.

Please fix this issue, it gets too confusing.

Not very accurate

All was miss match time

Mislabeling: Inaccurate Bus Timing Notifications

This app is definitely an improvement over relying solely on Google to check bus schedules. However, there's a persistent issue in the mornings where the app inaccurately labels buses as 'late' when they're actually on time. The real-time updates often come too late, with the notification appearing only when the bus is four minutes away, leaving little time to catch it.

Overall Good App

Have seen instances when it says late 2 minutes meanwhile the bus shows up 2 minutes early. I’d advise arriving early to be safe.

Great when it’s working

This app is wonderful when it’s working, lately even when I have full bars it says loading when you first open the app. Happened three times over the span of a week. If there can be another update that would be nice.

Reliable app

The app is reliable and very easy to use. 👍🏻

Must have app for any transit user

If you are a Winnipeg Transit user you need this app. Way more streamlined than using navigo or telebus.

I have been using Winnipeg Bus Live since it launched and have had a great experience. Simple interface, easy to understand, and accurately matches what is on the digital boards.

Awesome App

This app is really the best I have used so far. Gives you accurate estimates of bus arrival and updates the time if there is a delay. Plus it is really easy to use and I can save my frequent stops. Really coool!

Great app if you know the stop numbers.

Great app when used with the other one that give the routes and stop numbers.

The most accurate app

After trying many app related to Winnipeg bus services, I found this app is the most accurate and reliable one, beside that its reliable and easy to use.

Perfect when using voice over

Allow for the fact that times are about one minute out.

App is great. Transit is terrible!

For starters, it is my go-to app when it comes to trusting the times of the bus schedule. However, even if the bus may say LATE 5 Minutes, the bus may be earlier or later so I always try to be at the bus stop 5 minutes before it comes.

It would be nice if there’s a way to completely disable the ads. I wouldn’t mind paying every month or have a one time payment to remove them.

Also, it would be nice if we could have a dark mode for the bus app. I mean the app is nice and all but I think it would be great to have a makeover or something. I am an Web/Mobile Applications Developer so I am here to help if you need.

Thanks for the great app!
