This app really needs an update. I'm not sure if the developers went bust. Glad to see it's still here in the app store. It's waaaaaaaaaaay more accurate with arrival times vs. the Ventra app. Which is very inaccurate, shows ghost buses, glitches all the time, moves super slow, and will not allow me to change my CC info. CTA/Ventra could learn a lot from the developers of this app.

The app is okay the only thing is that it's missing some other stops on most or some routes I don't know how many. Otherwise, the app is being rated 4/5 stars for me. The 126 is missing some stops going eastbound and I guess the problem is some stops not showing the buses pulling up and 2 routes like the 132 Goose Island Express and 205 Chicago/Golf are discontinued. It is still 4 stars for me.

My favorite transit app. Easy to use and it let's me check multiple stops quickly. The estimated arrival times are accurate, unless there is an issue with the bus. I also like that you can see where the bus is at the time you're checking. Which helps me gauge when I should leave to catch it. Highly recommend for Android users.
