► Live or scheduled departures - you choose
► A to B route finder, for when you don't know which bus from which stop

► Routes and journey times (view as list or map)
► Stop locations accurately marked on a map
► Track your position along a route
► Filter departure boards.
► Store and edit favourite stops.
► Recall recent stops.
► Show street view of stop locations

Amazingly intuitive to use:
► Tap stop markers to see info bubbles - tap the info bubbles to see the departures boards.
► Tap departures to show routes and journey times - choose to view on the map or as a list. (Note that this app differentiates between route alternatives for the same service!)

Tips:
1. Drag down on the tab at the top of the screen to activate the route finder. Works like a light-weight journey planner - you say from where, to where and when, then let the route finder crunch through every UK timetable to find suitable direct services.

2. Tap the "i" icon on the map info-bubbles to see more options for a stop. "Long press" on the "Favourites" or "Recent" stop lists gives similar results.

3. "Verify" cached routes if you think there may be an alternative routing for different departure times. (You can opt to have this done for automatically by switching off "Cache routes" in settings. NB. "verified" routes also provide vehicle descriptions (region dependent).

Useless for Northern England
Karrots125

All these bus apps are London-centric. If you are anywhere else they will be fairly useless.
