Great!!
Bodeljack

Very straightforward - easy to find nearby stops and see arrival predictions fast.


does not work well with voiceover

Don't bother with this app if you are blind. No text information is made available to voiceover.


Very limited
MrHiren

The alternative app Mobile UW is far more comprehensive. Also there is an iAd banner for which you must pay $3.00 to remove. Pitiful...


Works great!

Works as advertised - also useful for figuring out when the next stop is coming up so that you can pull the cord.


Daylight savings times

Good app except when daylight savings time is. The times are all off by an hour now.


Thumbs down
Malhoy

$0.99 version has adds! Do not get this app. I feel cheated and want my money back. If I spend money on an app, I expect not to be asked to spend more money to get an ad free app. Horrible!


Been wrong about bus schedule 5 times in a week

Not satisfied at all. :(


Great app

Does what my old favorite app does, but 5 times faster. Sometimes gets stuck updating stop times (error updating), only once in a while. I've had a good streak of consistently bringing up stop times.


Often has errors updating the stop times
Bjk8373

This app isn't reliable. More often than not I get an error when trying to update the times at stops that service a bunch of bus lines, such as 234. Less trafficked bus stops work fine. I would just use the UW app despite the more cumbersome UI until they fix how this interacts with smsmybus.


Bugs
BBY Employee

I like this app a lot, but It frequently doesn't update stops. I have to constantly refresh for several minutes until it connects. They also have no way to report bugs like this so I guess my only option is to write about it in a review. I expect better from a paid app with adds...
