Since the most recent update, you only see 1 time for bus arrival, instead of the current bus and 2 - 3 following buses. Also, you receive a message stating that no further transit scheduled, when looking at another stop. It has become increasingly frustrating as I have relied on this app for years, and it has even been more accurate than translinks options. Additionally, orange yellow and green for soonest to latest respectively arriving bus caused confusion. Green usually means now not later.

Edit: lately the app jumps to the wrong bus stop every time I unlock the screen, even after disabling the 'current location' setting. It's driving me nuts, I keep thinking the bus is delayed when it's actually showing me some random other bus. Other than that... The fonts are hard for me to read sometimes, and I wish I could group favourites, but the basic features seem solid.

Didnt realize how much i depend on this app until it stopped working. Normally this app works great! Tells you (with decent accuracy) what time the bus is coming, you can zoom in to any location and click the bus stops to check times. My favourite part is being able to see where the busses actually are, real time; using that info I gauge when to leave my house. However recently the bus trackers have been totally inaccurate or missing. The arrival times are mostly useless without being able to double check their accuracy with the bus trackers
