Ratings and reviews

It's good but GO mode usually crashes / gets swapped out of memory if backgrounded. And the app gets quite slow if you open too many lines/modals consecutively (without going back to the main activity). It would be good if GO mode could show the position of the bus you're waiting for (easy) and adapt to new paths along the way and suggest faster routes if it becomes aware of them (harder).

i got this app years ago when it was good. i understand that ads support apps that need the revenue. when it started adding them it was fine. now you can barely see 4 different routes, and it introduced a subscription service?? as someone who works two jobs i loved the simplicity and not having to pay to use something essential for me. i find myself using my maps app sometimes more often than this, which never used to be the case. just makes me feel tired i guess.

This app just keeps getting worse. Once upon a time this was fully free with by the minute updates on any buses, trains, etc. They then switched to a subscription model to see the route timings that were not in your immediate surroundings. Seemed like a waste of money to me but whatever. Now more recently you can't even get all your local info without paying. I can see my bus schedule but the go train schedule is locked behind a paywall. I live right next to the go station. Worth 0 stars now.

What's new

We’re thrilled to announce that OC Transpo, every Sens fan’s favourite transit agency, is now giving EVERYONE IN OTTAWA free Royale (including the urbanist snakes). From Kanata to Barrhaven to the majestic bogland they call Orléans — it’s the best thing to happen to the 613 since Alexei Kovalev stole Boustan’s shawarma recipe and gave it to Chris Neil.
