Ratings and reviews

Generally it's a fantastic and very useful app. Problem is relevant data is sometimes not available. Why does Community Transit of Snohomish County Washington State not show up sometimes. You can see the scheduled trips. But not the up to the minute arrival data based on actual traffic. It works great for a couple of months and then... All the data drops off. Other agencies in the area don't seem to have this problem.

The iOS version was great. On Android, not so much. When looking at the details of a route, you can't see what the continuing route is, so essentially it's truncated. Which is the most debilitating flaw. For instance, if I want to catch the 31 at Troll Ave., I can't see which ones turn into 75 and which don't. Some smaller issues are, if you hit see trip details and then go back, you're taken back all the way to the general map, and there is no real time map option for specific buses

The app has some great features like showing route maps and a list of all routes at a particular bus stop, but it's accuracy for arrival times is inconsistent and unreliable. On a weekly basis the app says my bus is 18 minutes away and 45 minutes later it says 19 minutes away. Unfortunately I don't know of a more accurate way of determining King County Metro's actual arrival times
