Excellent transit app for Los Angeles County with correct live schedules for LA Metro, Metrolink, and Foothill Transit. Near Me feature reminds me of old NextBus. I like it more than Transit, Moovit, and Citymapper. Loads quick.

I just down this app, so far it looks ok it has everything I need, you see it takes me 2 minutes to get to my bus stop so I set the alarm to notify me in 2 minutes and when it does I start heading for the bus and that is good however it does not allow me to swipe from east to west on the same route and it does not have the ttc door alarm

Used to show the next times for fav routes, now shows stop and it takes extra click to see all routes and then scroll to the one I want. Not nearly as handy anymore. The update has not seemed to resolve the issue.

App design is still fine but many stops in the downtown Toronto core are missing entirely and can't even be found via location code. Feedback button is also useless, being just a "Share" button, so this is the only avenue to communicate with the dev.

Useless. The trip planner doesn't alert you in real time of issues and unless you happen to check the service alerts (and even then it's not in any particular order) you would never know certain routes weren't actually open. Just use Google. At least it's accurate.

Ugly user interface that dates back to early 2000s and unintuitive navigation. Doesn't have accurate times and the GPS features are useless if a bus is ever late (disappears from the map). But given the state of how Calgary transit is in general none of this is surprising...

Pretty simple and easy to use. Though bus times are based on the schedule time table rather than the live updates. I wish the stops had the stop IDs that the transit company uses since it can be a little confusing to pick the correct stop. It would be cool if there was a map you could see your incoming bus too.

Very sorry to give low rating, b/c app seems very good at outset. It lacks very important deal-breaker feature: doesn't show trip stages on ea line, have to open 1 by 1! Extreme degradation of svcs in our city of last 8 yrs mean we need to factor out trips w/long stretches of walking (sometimes 11-17 mins!), esp w/our winters +many bus transfers! Trip stages should appear on ea line w/simple icons +time listed as other bus apps do that don't seem to be as good as this one is in other respects!

I love the app, but I do miss the bus number tab. if that could be added again, that would be lovely!

Barely usable. Regularly plans routes that overshoot my destination, then tells me to take same route going the other way to get back. That's fine if your mobility is severely limited, but my legs work fine, and there's no way to tell the app I prefer to walk half a block, especially when it saves 30 minutes of travel.

It's very reliable very accurate I really like it it's very effective very useful. Now I'm forced to write this and this little square because going to the next optional possibility does not allow me to comment. I only negative part of this app is that it's not easy to use only after searching and searching and searching and we find what we need it's not easy to comprehend and to know exactly how to useit. We have to go to Every stop and make them favourites

Liked this app a lot, at first...but bus location data for Halifax NS is all messed up, and has been for months now . The main reason I have just uninstalled it is, the insidious ads it displayed...taking over the screen with fake virus warning and other garbage security apps...way to ruin your good app guys!

Showing time incorrectly. Earlier this app used to be better than maps. Now arriving time does not gets updated correctly.

Maybe it's just that it's a holiday weekend and there are no buses running, but... I am not so impressed yet. There is absolutly no information to be found on this app. If this app doesn't produce, tomorrow I will reload it. Word of warning... this app's competitor... Tr@n$it... works until you don't pay their "fee", although It's supposed to be free. I am NOT opposed to paying... just getting strong armed for my digits! 🤔 😬

Very useful because it has so many cities. However, it doesn't have a map update of the bus location but this is minor to me. Somehow, bus status can reduce the boredom of waiting.

Amazing, finally an app that works reliably for transit! Things are color coded which is great but I wish there was a legend for that. Also wish the map view of any line can show your location so you can follow along a route and know where you are are all times. It would also be nice if planned trips could be saved and look up the itinerary / stops again more easily than creating a custom trip again and again

The more common transit apps on Android either charge exorbitant monthly fees for basic features, or haven't updated in months. CityTransit, so far, is a solid alternative. The ads are largely unobtrusive, and although the interface could use some refinement, like letting me sort buses by which is arriving soonest, it's clean and concise. A solid option for real-time bus schedules.
