Brilliant bus app with all the buses I need in one place! It would be a massive improvement if the live buses (especially the ones of different companies) had a different a colour on the map, this would also mean they stand out more from all of the grey bus stops. Adding the option for dark mode would also be great. Aside from the UI, it would also be useful if when you click on a bus stop you only get the live location of those buses, this would make the map much less busy and easy to see

Skip ad button does nothing, the 'x' you doesn't always work, and when you're in a hurry and want to check the bus ETA, they shove an unskippable ad in your face. I missed both buses to work today because the app said they weren't running; they were. How about showing the ad 1 seconds after you look at the timetable, than on the first frame? If you leave the app open it plays an ad every 5 minutes or so which are loud and intrusive. Edit: The Ads are even longer and worse than they used to be.

Used to love this app until it morphed into having pop up ads. But that's not the worst bit. Once the ad is over, you can't close it. So you reopen the app hoping you wont get a pop up ad except you do, and just get stuck in a loop for ten minutes until an ad won't appear. Absolutely awful. Get a different Bus app.
