Ratings and reviews

New version automatically replaced old version on my phone. Not impressed ... I'd like to have a choice and not have it update without me approving the change on my phone first. New version either very slow or crashes constantly. Not user friendly like previous version. Frustrating due to slowness ... Keep getting a message that app and s not responding.

I have been using this app for a couple of years now and it's always been reliable but this morning I noticed it got an update and I thought sweet it looks slick now, but then I find out that it doesnt display any times and when I go to select stops it tells me that there are no stop times to show. I have closed and reopened the app multiple times and it still gives me the same message. Please fix.

I used to use an app called busbuddy, not sure if this is the same app since it seems updated for the worse. The app shows the next few times for each bus stop but does not include maps, the route planner also does not have a map - it allows you to enter your location and destination then asks you to switch to Google maps, which just displays "no routes available" unless you key in your info again directly in Google. Google is not as accurate as octranspo site so you might as well go there.
