Ever stood at a bus stop with no idea when the next bus will come? BusTable puts every bus stop in Korea on a map, shows real-time arrivals where they are available, and fills in the gaps with something wonderfully simple: photos of the paper timetables posted at the stops themselves, shared by riders like you. From city express buses to once-a-day village routes, it is all in one app. KEY FEATURES - Nationwide stop map Pan the map and nearby bus stops appear instantly. Find stops around your current location, your hometown, or your next travel destination. - Real-time arrivals Tap a stop to see which buses are coming, how many minutes and stops away they are, and the full route details. - Paper timetable photos At stops without real-time data, snap a photo of the printed timetable on the pole and share it. The next person waiting there will thank you. This is where BusTable shines: rural stops, village buses, and quiet outskirts the big apps forget. - Community-verified accuracy Shared timetable photos are rated with likes and dislikes, so outdated or incorrect timetables sink and trustworthy ones rise to the top. - Comment reports Riders leave local tips like "this schedule changed last month" or "no service on weekends" right on each stop. - Contribution points and ranks Earn points and level up every time you upload a photo, rate a timetable, or leave a report. Your contribution becomes someone else's ride home. - Start without an account Browse the map and arrival info freely as a guest. Sign in only when you want to share photos or rate timetables. PERFECT FOR - Riders who depend on rural or suburban stops without real-time displays - Anyone catching a village bus that only runs a few times a day - Families who worry about elderly parents taking the bus back home - Travelers exploring unfamiliar regions by public transit - Neighbors who want to build better local transit info together DATA SOURCES Real-time arrivals, stop and route data come from the TAGO public transit API by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport of Korea and the Seoul Metropolitan Government open data API. Paper timetable photos and comments are contributed by users. Due to the nature of public and user-contributed data, information may differ from actual operations and accuracy is not guaranteed. Please double-check before time-critical trips. CONTACT Questions or suggestions? We would love to hear from you. Contact: siwooeo@gmail.com BusTable currently covers bus stops in South Korea.
