Very helpful

I use the app routinely and find it very helpful. I have both iOS and Android versions. Android has a significantly different GUI which I like better. I would suggest adopting some of those differences such as: 1. Don’t use the different colors indicating bus is early, late, on time and scheduled as text color. Instead change the background color of the listing to match. It would be easier to see outdoors. 2. Use much bigger and bolder font for the bus status. 3. Bus stop icons are too busy looking. Simplify them or use pins similar to map apps. Thank you for the opportunity to comment.
SO. INCONSISTENT.

This app is great if you have unlimited amount of time on your hand and don’t care about being late. Absolutely the most inconsistent wait times. I understand arrival times are constantly changing but sometimes, buses will not show up. I don’t mean late- I mean they do not show up. I’m not sure if this is a Seattle public transportation issue or an app issue but either way, do NOT trust the wait times.
Great data, UI still rough

I’m torn. This app has the best real-time bus data, but the user interface is still pretty rough. It can be downright difficult to find or select the bus stop — even when you’re standing at it! Another example: the built in map doesn’t support the standard double-tap-and-swipe, to zoom in and out. That means it takes two hands to zoom out, unlike every other map. Awkward, but not unusable. Still, when you need to know when the bus is coming, this app will tell you. Ultimately, that’s what it’s for, and it accomplishes that.
App is great... when it works correctly

I missed my bus because it will say that my bus has already passed.... when it actually was late. And yeah it’s a big deal because this bus only goes that route until a certain time
It’s good

It’s a good app but I wish it would show the bus schedules for Sunday’s. Or is that only a issue on my phone??
Not accurate

This app seems to go off schedule times, not real time tracking, and anyone who has ridden the bus sat all knows that the schedules mean nothing. Truth in advertising people, I can get your services and more through the king county trip planner.
not accurate
rideralert
been using this app for a few months now. Safe to say it is extremely inaccurate. It tells you the bus is on time but when the time comes, it keeps delaying it by the minute. There were a couple of time where it delayed 20-30 minutes, by the minute. This needs some serious fixing. Or collaboration with the sound transit
I used to rely on it

I used to rely on one bus away for everything since I use the bus most of the time but with this new update, it always says I am out of the one bus away zone and won't show me when any of the busses are coming and won't even show where there's a bus stop. I have an older iPhone SE and with this new update I guess it is incompatible now but I think that is unfair. We should not be forced to buy a newer phone just to have s
