About this app

See live bus times for London Buses with privacy-first design. Your privacy matters to us:
✅ Location sharing is completely optional - the app works perfectly without it
✅ When you do share location, it's only used to find nearby bus stops or plan a journey as you would expect
✅ Your data is never sold or transferred to third parties (except TfL for bus predictions or journey planning)
✅ We track buses, not people

IMPORTANT: The purpose of this app is to keep you updated on the latest arrival times for buses based on traffic conditions and other factors, this means that expected times might change based on local conditions while you are waiting. If you don't like to see live bus times, please refer to the timetables at the bus stops instead (I have to point this out as some users have complained that bus times changed while waiting - this is exactly the point of this app - to keep you up to date!).

All prediction data is supplied by Transport for London. Please note that the application shows small ads at the bottom of the screen, but no full-screen ads. Feel free to contact me on the email address provided with bug reports and feature requests.

Ratings and reviews

Out of all the bus apps I have ever used. This one is far over better and accurate. Thank you, developers. 28/12/24 Update: Up to today, I am still using this app. I encourage anyone who reads my message to try this app. Secondly, at any bus stop you go to, you can add your favourite of each bus stop you use. In closing, best of luck.

I use the app several times a day to check bus arrival times and have found it to be more accurate than Google maps and quicker to access than TFL. I also love that you have access to extra info, like the number plate and the operator which are useful for lost property situations. To make it even better I'd love to have info on whether the bus has usb ports or not. I've also not found a way to access data on bus stops which aren't that close by, for when I'm changing buses.

Pretty good app that is as accurate as the TFL feed let's it. It does show whether the TFL feed , the TFL countdown service is working as normal, I also use Bus Checker .. The journey planner is now updated to allow for future travel. I prefer this app to both Bus Checker and TFL plan a journey. The interface is easy to use and easy to store or remove,and use favourite bus stops. I subscribed to the add free version, only £10 per annum. Good value.
