About this app

See live bus times for London Buses.

IMPORTANT: The purpose of this app is to keep you updated on the latest arrival times for buses based on traffic conditions and other factors, this means that expected times might change based on local conditions while you are waiting. If you don't like to see live bus times, please refer to the timetables at the bus stops instead (I have to point this out as some users have complained that bus times changed while waiting - this is exactly the point of this app - to keep you up to date!).

All prediction data is supplied by Transport for London. Please note that the application shows small ads at the bottom of the screen, but no full-screen ads. Feel free to contact me on the email address provided with bug reports and feature requests.

Ratings and reviews

Great app, you can search by route, nearby stops or even stops with a certain name (except.g. Victoria Station) showing the next 30 minutes of buses to that stop. You can then click through to see not only the stops that that vehicle will stop at in the next 30 minutes, but also see a picture of the vehicle so you know what type of bus you are looking out for!

What's excellent? Less of a jungle of godawful unwanted adverts than on the London Transport rival. What's not so good? No option for seeing the distance of approaching buses in terms of how many minutes away they are - you need to keep looking at your watch. Also, near stations where theres a prigudion of bus stops: much harder to tell where you actually are (The Opposition gives you your distance in metres). So, as the poet says, "You pays your money and... 🤔

This app has the potential to be the best. However, when you maps steps to locate a bus stop, I can't touch the map to "Show Stops Here" pop up. This is missing. Very important when travelling to unfamiliar places.
