Ratings and reviews

Works pretty good, extremely useful compared to looking up times online. It's quite annoying when it deletes your favourites though, as well as refreshing and scrolling to the top of your favourites page, I'm not sure why this happens. If I might come with a suggestion, would it be possible to add categories? Let's say I have some buses I use for work, some for school and some for friends. It would make it easier to navigate.

This app is terribly glitchy. Bus routes are sometimes marked as late but are on time. Sometimes an upcoming bus route shows up only to not show up again once departure time approaches. It is a hassle to use this app to manage our kids' travel to and from school or elsewhere. This is no way to run a mass transit system.

Loads for an incredibly long time before MAYBE finding one route. Often says "an unknown error has occurred" no matter if I'm using WiFi or mobile data. Also usually suggest way more unnecessarily complicated routes than if I check it up myself. The consept is good, but doesn't help when then app rarely works as it should. 👎

What’s new

Real-time data provides better travel suggestions

The app now uses real-time information instead of scheduled times when giving you travel suggestions. This means that the suggestions are based on where the vehicle actually is, not just on the timetable. If the vehicle has real-time data, the travel suggestions will automatically update in case of delays.
