Good but...

I use this all the time, but I can't access the MBTA tweets and About/FAQ options at the bottom. I scroll down but it bounces out of the way.
Problems with arrival times
MelinEverett
The arrival times at some locations are showing PM schedules instead of AM. When you click on the next stop it will give an AM time, but you don't know if it's correct. What the heck?
Very good

I Was looking for a good bus schedule found this. I like the real time it is close, though I have had so problems that keep it at 3 stars some times it will not display the realtime and the estimated time is off I would like them to add notifications so you can chose a stop and have it tell you it's there or tell you an eta when it is closer to your stop so if you know it takes 5 min to walk to your stop have it tell you it's 10 min away so you give your self time to get there
Seriously?!?

What happened? This app tells me to remove all my bookmarks because there was a change to the data and then I can't get a single route to re-bookmark. When I updated, still nothing! How difficult is it to get updates correct? I'm actually glad this happened. I found such a better app. I would give open mbta no stars if I could.

As soon as I updated my iOS to version 8 and then also 8.2 the GPS function stopped working, and that was THE best part!!! Knowing just how long it's really going to tKe for my bus to get here because everyone knows that schedule is unreliable!!!
App did not work.

I'm not sure if I'm missing anything but app did not work for me at all. No routes to display at all.
“real time” is a lie
Ev_
The “real time” data this app claims to display is more often than not wrong. Arrival times are almost always 1–10 minutes off, and “phantom” buses and trains are commonplace; you will watch the little purple dot arrive at your stop and depart without an actual bus or train existing. Seems like it’s just a visualization of the paper schedule, which, since it’s the MBTA, is nowhere near accurate anyway.
Used to be great!

I used to rely on this app for the commuter rail, but it has not been updated with the new schedules. The app needs to remain up-to-date in order to be useful. Please fix!
Awesome app until....

Great app until I'm prompted to delete my bookmarks and re-bookmark them. Once I delete the bookmarks and try to search for the bus route, commuter rail, or train again to re-bookmark, all screens are blank. This is awful if your in a time pinch as I was this morning.
