About this app

Plan a journey, buy a great value mobile ticket (mTicket) or find where your bus is with live bus times – you can do all this and more with the First Bus App, making bus travel even easier.

PLAN YOUR JOURNEY
With our door to door route planner you can check your quickest route to work or plan a new adventure and help you to get around at the weekend. Just enter a destination to view your route options and we’ll show you which of our bus services can get you there with step-by-step instructions.

CHECK LIVE BUS TIMES
The First Bus App is the best way to get live bus times and route information. You can save your favourite stops, routes and locations and revisit recently searched journeys. The map shows the bus stops nearby where you can see live updates to check where and when your bus is coming letting you head to your bus stop just before your bus is due.

BUY YOUR MOBILE TICKET (MTICKET)
You can buy your great value bus ticket on the First Bus App before you travel so with mTickets there’s no need to carry cash or worry about having the right change. Some of our tickets are cheaper on the app so get it downloaded for our best bus ticket prices. Payments are secure and there’s a handy ‘buy again’ button with one-tap checkout making repeat purchases even quicker and easier to do.

The app also features:
• Tickets for Heathrow RailAir, Buses of Somerset and First Kernow.
• Payments via Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Google Pay and Apple Pay.
• The ability to gift tickets to a child or young person.

App regularly breaks on a weekly basis, with no live tracking and even better still, no time tables. Buses don't always turn up and funny enough the app stops working then 🙄 Well timed, especially in the mornings. This app, or should I say company, needs a lot of work putting into it to even break a two. Update: Live tracking now works and the app is way more stable and looks better to the eye. Just got to fix the bus times and it's golden.
