Not accurate real time anymore
WadeClevon
It’s been a few months now but this app doesn’t time the buses accurately anymore... it’s off by over 5 minutes .. not Real Time ... I recommend you text Metro “Bus Stop #” and you will get a return message is closer to real time by 2-3 min
A total joke

This app is a joke. It tells you when trains/busses are SCHEDULED to arrive, not when they actually do. For instance, according to the app, the train just left the station I am sitting at. In reality, no train came. Other cities like DC have had apps that tell you exactly where the bus is and have had them for YEARS. I don’t understand why Houston can’t have that.
Just a schedule. Poorly presented real time

Real time data in text format only and it didn’t seem to change as the bus moved. Show me a graphic: map with bus icon. Doesn’t allow user to filter out the routes of no interest.
412

The 412 is never where the GPS says it is. Very frustrating when you are trying to get to work on time :(
For the most part, this app is accurate.

It shows where the busses are located at exactly (the green busses) are the ones you want to search for to know when the next one will be approaching your bus stop. Sometimes, there are delays but it should still be accurate and not far off. I like this app is VERY convenient to get around especially if you are on a time bind. It will tell you specifically when the next bus is coming even if a delay happens. Y’all should get this app if you guys ride the Metro. Super convenient honestly. It shows you the routes the bus number is taking and the path and all the stops etc. If you are lost this is another way to quickly find where you are. It’s like a GPS as well as a bus scheduler put into 1.
Helpful, but not.
Good Johnny2xs
This app is fairly accurate until it isn’t. I’ve seen arrival/schedule times jump up and down witching seconds of inquiring of the next arrival. It doesn’t really warn you of unexpected delays as they happen. Difficult to stay close to approximate times as well when most but not all bus drivers are diligent to stay on schedule.
Works well

Most of the time the app works fine sometimes it freezes or crashes.
Just up and stopped working

App was reasonably accurate until one day it just stopped giving estimated or scheduled times.
Not designed by a bus rider.

There are no words to describe how frustrating it is to needlessly stand in the rain for twenty minutes because this app has gives no alert when the busses/trains stop running.
Inaccurate App

This app is very inaccurate. Unless the bus is a ghost, I don’t see them at the stop when the app says arriving in 1 minute then it quickly jumps to arriving in 14 minutes. I don’t think it tracks the actual bus, but rather just follows the bus schedule.
