Edit: lately the app jumps to the wrong bus stop every time I unlock the screen, even after disabling the 'current location' setting. It's driving me nuts, I keep thinking the bus is delayed when it's actually showing me some random other bus. Other than that... The fonts are hard for me to read sometimes, and I wish I could group favourites, but the basic features seem solid.

*update* since originally writing this the ap has improved to be more accurate on locating buses and the UI experience is more smooth and less clunky. Clunky ui; hard if not imposible to use in a hurry ;dislike how 75% of my map / screen is covered w ads, schedules, or keyboard that doesn't collapse. Can't find how to see where a bus is on a map (perhaps that feature doesn't even exist). I like the ability to bookmark my common stops and that bus times are almost always accurate

This app was great up until a few updates ago. It was indispensable before, and now I don't even bother using it much. Previously, you were able to view the buses move in real-time along the selected bus route. Now, I'm not sure why that function disappeared since the posted arrival times aren't accurate and often when it states that the "bus is now coming", you've already missed it by a quite a few minutes. Please bring back real-time tracking!

The real time bus positions are not available due to TransLink getting ransomwared; they are still trying to sort the issue out. Probably applies to a lot of the live bus data as well. Nothing I can do.
