I like the real time updates of when buses will arrive at your stop, and even that you can see the location of approaching buses on the map. I can't find nearly as good an app on my partner's iPhone!
★★★★★
Great app, up to date and always correct. My carrier charges to text the oc Transpo number to find where the bus is, so it's perfect for me
★★★★★
Great, but some easy improvements needed Love this app for getting accurate GPS-based bus arrival estimates. There are 2 features I'd really like to see: 1. User should be able to save 'favorite' bus stops (e.g. Even if it wasn't one of my last 5 searches, I'd like my bus routes to/from work to always be displayed along with my most recent searches). 2. Another nice feature would be to see all upcoming buses passing through a certain station in one view
★★☆☆☆
Is there any app that can provide me with a route map for whatever bus number I put in? This one apparently not I can put in a bus stop, but I can't seem to locate where I can put in a bus route such as 12 14 15 Etc
★★☆☆☆
Less accurate now than it used to be; though that's probably more to do with OC Transpo limiting the info available to developers. One major flaw I've noticed is that buses more than 5 minutes late (ie:all of them) now disappear from the app completely.
★★☆☆☆
Couldn't even get it to recognize one of the largest bus stations in Ottawa (fallow field). Search doesn't work. Uninstalled in 2 minutes.
★★☆☆☆
Used to be my go-to app, as it was easy to see where the bus was on the map. Since the last update it doesn't work properly, either not able to pull the data for the stop or doesn't show the times.
★★☆☆☆
Right now neither your app nor the phone on the bus stop will work. Fog God's sake what's wrong, ??
