321Transit Bus Tracker holds the better App Store score, 2.9 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: LYNX® Paw Pass has 171 ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of 321Transit Bus Tracker's written reviews are positive against 3% of LYNX® Paw Pass's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
321Transit Bus Tracker ships an update every 10 months, LYNX® Paw Pass every 18 months. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
