But more often than not, it’s malfunctioning. ### 2/5 — Issues *2024-09-09, version 1.9.6* This app can be very frustrating at times. There’s times the app doesn’t recognize my log in and says it’s not on file. The app will be disabled for some odd reason and can no longer use to track my children. ### 2/5 — Decent when working *2024-09-04* When it’s working this app is decent at showing you where the bus is. But there are some glitches/problems. 1. If there is a substitute bus driver or if bus switches due to mechanical issues, you don’t get notified 2. Some days it just doesn’t work… no notifications, no bus showing on the map, nothing. 3. If your bus crosses your “zone” multiple times, you get notified. For instance, after picking up our kids, the bus drives past our street again after picking up additional children and turning around. More annoying than a problem but wanted to note that. ### 2/5 — Needs Cell Service *2024-08-27* It doesn’t pickup if there’s no cell service in the area.. which makes it useless for most of West Virginia schools. I’m the last house before service drops so it works when my son is coming home from school but doesn’t pick up in the mornings until after the bus arrives in my driveway. Has great potential and works wonderful where there’s service but mornings are when I need it most. ### 2/5 — Very slow *2024-01-31, version 1.9.6* Half the time it doesn’t even work says the server is busy. The other times it is so slow to update where the bus is. Sometimes you get notifications but most of the time you do not. ### 1/5 — No funciona *2023-11-09, version 1.8.0* No contestan en soporte técnico, no encuentro al estudiante después de colocar, código, ID y nombre como lo piden. No muestran las rutas ni las guaguas. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all 😡 *2023-10-18* No notifications nothing. Just a view of a map no more than my own maps app on my phone. I have let them know and nothing. It’s been this entire school year. So 3 almost 4 months and nothing. I really wish someone would come out with something that ACTUALLY works. Especially when the bus is going to be over an hour late with our kids. Incredibly frustrating! ### 2/5 — When it works… *2023-10-16* When the app works it’s a great tool for getting the kids to the bus stop on time. Problem is it doesn’t always work. Why does it seem to glitch on the day they go back to school after a few days off?? With unmotivated kids at the end of days off that’s when it should be working the most 😳 ### 1/5 — The app still barely works *2023-10-04* It has been 3 years the school my son attends has used this app. It’s great when it works, but it constantly has problems. They don’t answer help questions and the school says to contact the app so nothing gets solved. The school says they have a rep, but doesn’t seem like they get much help? If the app developers don’t answer help tickets how can they make the app work? If the issues is student safety and the schools are paying this app money to help with that and it doesn’t work? I am starting a petition for my sons school to search elsewhere for an app that cares about kids safety. Technology isn’t perfect, but when the company doesn’t respond it shows their intentions. ### 1/5 — Does this app even work? *2023-09-22, version 1.8.0* I don’t understand why my district is paying for an app that doesn’t work. AT ALL. It will not allow me to add a bus. So it’s completely useless. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. *2023-09-19, version 1.8.0* It won’t even let me add a bus. ### 2/5 — Better than nothing… *2023-09-15* When it works, it’s very useful. So far this school year, the bus has not shown up on the map, but I at least still receive notifications when it enters each zone I’ve created. I also keep getting notifications for the elementary bus route, despite having removed that bus from my settings. I’ve already tried reinstalling the app and creating a whole new account to fix these issues, yet they persist. I’ve also emailed the developers, received a quick reply, but then no further response to my request for help, and the problem hasn’t been fixed. ### 2/5 — Only works half the time *2023-09-07, version 1.8.0* I have two buses to keep track of and half the time, one of them doesn’t show up on the map until it’s dropping my daughter off at school. Not helpful at all if you’re trying to watch for the bus in the morning. Tried contacting support with no response or resolution. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not reliable at all!!! *2026-02-23* This app is not reliable at all. Sometimes it will show the buses sometimes it doesn’t. I’ve sent at least five emails about the problems of not showing the buses or getting any notifications and I have not once been contacted back ever, very disappointed! If I could give it zero stars I would this is very sad because this is supposed to be able to help check your kids buses. ### 1/5 — Try harder *2025-06-29, version 2.0.4* It’s better WHEN IT ACTUALLY WORKS ### 1/5 — Shows map, no bus tracking *2024-11-12* I’ve had this app for a few weeks, and it has yet to show where the bus is. Does it work for anyone in November 2024? :( ### 1/5 — Horrible *2024-09-24, version 1.9.6* This app is horrible. It tells you the bus has left school 3 different times and doesn’t even let you follow the bus it just disappears. ### 1/5 — Good idea, terrible experience! *2024-09-13* In the 3 weeks I’ve been trying to use this app it’s been one problem after another. Today finally seems like it’s working, go to check on the kids bus, and it says “we are experiencing high traffic, please try again later” It’s freaking dismissal time he is on his way home, of course everyone is accessing. This is the worst experience with a school app I’ve ever had, worst that my school bucks app if you can imagine! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work most of the time *2024-08-15, version 1.9.6* Zones don’t work, bus never moves. I got one notification of one swipe but by the afternoon it didn’t register or notify me of his trip home. ### 1/5 — Bad need update or something *2024-02-22, version 1.9.6* I missed my bus because I was checking the app and it show my bus in the same location for 45 mins not moving then I called my friend and it came 30 mins ago the app is glitched don’t get it ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2024-01-31, version 1.9.6* Only works half of the time. Very frustrating to not be able to follow my kindergarten child. ### 1/5 — Push notifications do not work *2023-11-19, version 1.8.0* Push notifications stopped working so we don’t know when the bus has entered a zone unless we go into the app to look. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-11-13, version 1.8.0* Absolutely cannot be relied on. Buses drop from view multiple times per week or only work for the return trip. Buses also are not numbered correctly. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5stars *2026-05-21, version 2.1.7* It’s great it helps me know when my bus comes it does not really glitch for me but the only thing that is ehh is that sometimes I do not get notifications ### 5/5 — The app is really great *2024-08-27* It allows to check where the bus is. Also it provides notifications when bus approaches my stop so we don’t need to stay outside (really convenient in winter) ### 5/5 — works amazing! *2023-09-01, version 1.8.0* always makes sure i’m to my bud on time by letting me know when it’s entering the neighborhood, can have some issues connecting at first but works great. ### 5/5 — MyView 5 stars *2022-02-24* Thanks to MyView I have the peace of mind knowing where my child and their bus is at all times. The alert zones and buses to follow were easy to add. With a quick and effortless set-up this product is the best available on the market, I recommend it! ### 4/5 — Okay app *2023-08-09* When it’s working it’s a great app to have. Main downside is it’s not always 100% accurate and sometimes it seems to be more on a timer than tracker. Had a few canceled school days where we were notified the bus had trashed the school, when in fact the buses were not running that day. ### 4/5 — Good app *2023-02-03, version 1.7.2* This app has its bugs that do need to be fixed but all in all it’s a great way to know that my son is safe. ### 4/5 — So helpful! *2022-11-22* This app has helped me have my daughter ready for the bus in the am and me ready to stop work and go out and get her in the pm. You can set different zones so when the bus hits that zone you are notified. I have a “Get shoes on!” Zone which gives us about 8 minutes to get shoes, coat and backpack on. The next zone is “Bus is here” when it is coming around the corner so we have enough time to walk out. In the afternoon I set the zone when the bus is about 5 minutes away so I can get things settled at my desk and walk out to get her. Only thing I would to see improve is the load/refresh time otherwise it would be 5 stars. ### 3/5 — Not reliable *2024-11-11* This app is not reliable. For example, today it said the bus was in another town while it’s sitting in front of my house. I’ll also randomly get notifications for days and times that I did not request. If it works it’s convenient but I learned not to rely on it anymore. ### 3/5 — Great when it is working *2024-01-19, version 1.9.6* This app is extremely helpful, when it is working correctly. However it seems to be sporadic. It consistently informs me of the afternoon locations but it keeps dropping the morning bus, which is the one I need to know the most. ### 3/5 — Great in theory… *2023-09-14, version 1.8.0* Great in theory, TERRIBLE in practice. This app NEVER works in the morning like it’s supposed to. It’s especially fun with tired kids and rain. In the afternoon it only SOMETIMES works. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
