About this app

The NYC School Bus app, powered by Via, gives caregivers greater visibility into their student's daily school commute. Through real-time GPS tracking information, caregivers will have peace of mind knowing the location of their student’s school bus and receive notifications when their student safely boards or exits the bus.

Ratings and reviews

The app is great when the bus drivers remember to turn on their side of it. It would be better if their end was made to automatically turn on when the bus starts it's route instead of the driver logging in. One of my kids bus drivers is an older gentleman and he hasn't had luck logging into the app which is not helpful to the parents at all. Some improvements are needed.

honestly started off as a good app, but at some point, it stopped working. when the bus driver signs it. it doesn't show them moving, at first I thought it was an issue on the bus company's end but then my kid got another bus company and it was the same issue. The app was recently updated, but the issue is still there

Horrible! One day it works the next day it doesn't. The bus icon is huge for the size of the map. Edited: after the press release on 1/22/24 the look of the app hasn't changed. However I feel like it might be running a little more smoothly than before.
