Comments on Bus & Tram for Android

★★★★★ Rach_xx · Dec 3, 2025
WAY BETTER THAN EAST COASTS OWN APP. BEST BUS TRACKER. IGNORE "REVIEWS" saying doesn't work. Obv fake just as better than co's own! Obv uses same GPS. Their own apps a nightmare & got worse. Was literally 50/50 if they either. Manage to get mins right or show up at all. This all is bang on if the drivers aren't turning their GPS off. Anyone in Edinburgh/Lothians I'd use this & uninstall the companies own.
★★★★☆ Claire Hastie · Apr 22, 2026
Always good if there is no timetable or digital screen which is alot, although I have had a few times buses seem to disappear on the app and just not turn up. don't know if this happens is fault on bus but does happen alot
★★★★★ Elliot · Sep 15, 2025
Spent a few days in Edinburgh and did all our planning and purchasing of tickets through the app. Best app of its kind that I've used by far!
★☆☆☆☆ Iain McLaren · Apr 2, 2026
Absolute garbage app. Buses disappear at random while you are waiting for them and then there are times when the "alleged arrival" countdown timer becomes an estimated time as per the timetable. This happens on the stupid color screen bus trackers also. LRT don't care nor do Edinburgh Council when you complain. The old app worked perfectly as did the old monochrome screen bus stop trackers. Avoid
★☆☆☆☆ Fraser Macinnes · Dec 21, 2025
It's always buffering, and you can't view the different timings of the bus stop. The old android version of Lothian buses was far superior
