Gives the same arrival times as any other app. I think a lot of the issues with buses not showing up are the cta's fault and not the apps. It's really about whether you enjoy the interface, which I do. I like the way it looks and I find it easy to navigate and I've been using it for a lot of years now.

This used to be my go-to tracker before lockdown, but it's been wildly inaccurate ever since—upending my travel plans and leaving me scrambling for an alternative more than once because it claims buses or trains are coming that never do. These issues are appearing with both modes and across multiple routes. Makes you wonder where arrival data is even coming from that's causing it to be so consistently incorrect.

just like the CTA itself, this app is unreliable. Times are incredibly inaccurate and downright fabricated, and the new updates have made the interface nearly impossible to navigate. I'm convinced these apps and the CTA tracker itself is a scam to get people to pay to sit at a station for 30 minutes and then be forced to take an Uber.
