BostonBusMap for Android
DC380 Samsung Galaxy S7
Not intuitive. Clunky.
The bus ride from Logan airport to braintree bus stop is a good ride
Had a problem after latest android update, but uninstalled and reinstalled, now no issues! (No update data or gps was issue)
No schedule info in new version (FIXED). Accurate & easy to use (after to get used to it.) Loses your favorites easily.
I use this app every day to see where my bus is before I leave my house in the morning. If my bus is running late, I know I can stay in my nice warm house for a few more minutes! I also use it to see where my commuter rail train is while I'm waiting. The app is simple to use and doesn't take up much memory on my phone. I wish MBTA were as reliable as this app!
Can take some time to learn its idiosyncrasies and tends to lose favorites, but it has the best bus info in Boston. I tested it vs Transit app and it was the clear winner on accuracy.
Interactive map of busses on Boston T system with all buses and timing at a stop or all buses and map location for a specific bus route.
Cleared data, working again
Reasonably accurate but after 1 yr of use I'm tired of the "no information found for this station" message I get almost daily. Force close and reload sometimes helps, but often it's just no info.
This app help me a lot to see bus schedule and make my life in Boston easier. I can't thank enough the developers, wish there's a way to donate (e.g. in app purchase).
Helpful in the short time I used it.
Fix your app! It keeps showing white boxes for vehicles every time and none of them load or go away unless I select that vehicle and keeps doing it again and again every time I zoom in/out. been doing this now for nearly 3 weeks every time this app has some sort of new issue or problem. If it's too many to load eliminate the trains this app is mainly for bus and has enough issues already as it is extra buses = more lag making the app slow!
I just wish for Android wear support.
It's cold out so you try to time when you arrive at the bus stop. You leave, giving yourself 5 extra minutes and watch the bus drive by as you walk up to the stop. It does something to try to be a minute more accurate, but it makes it unreliable somewhat frequently.
Very precision on the right time. I use every day and help me a lot to plan.
Pretty user friendly, but not very accurate. It shows arriving now for several minutes at a time.
I've used other apps to track buses but none are as accurate as this one. Very helpful.
I've used this for several years. There's always been something a little clunky about it, but it keeps getting better with every update.
Great app
Great app! I use it to get the MBTA Bus system. Works well on Lg Optimus V & F3. Very accurate, w/in 30 second updates.
Only complaint is favorite stops occasionally un-favorite themselves.
The best bar none!!!!
Accurate
since last review app is still the best use it all summer long no problems
This is a fantastic app, and the developer of it will fix it whenever it needs fixing. I wish all developers were like this one.
App had a small bug, the developer fixed it and updated the app in 2 days.
I've tried all of them. This one is the most accurate. Bus breaks show as stops, so just be careful with that if you're running late. The bus does show up, but it won't leave until the next stop on the list.
Won't save or show my favorite stops after updates. Basically unusable now. Trying another app.
I loved this app until the last update rendered it unusable with my phone. It needs a Google add-in my phone won't install. It is a shame.
load data function is in the spin of death...
It won't update, only swirls.
Even easier to use with the new update
Never no late
Too many permissions
I used to rate this 3*, but I can't get why it now needs access to my photos/camera/etc to show me where a bus or train is. It's unnecessary.
Update: A new update today wants access to photos/media/files. Am not comfortable with that, maybe will uninstall. Too bad, as this is the best bus app I have used.
No idea why new version of app wants access to my photos.
Used to love this app, but new updates request too many permissions.... This is great for the 57 line, highly recommended, makes the unpredictable bus a bit more predictable, because now you can know when it won't be there

After switching to an iPhone for a couple weeks I realized just how great this app is, since this isn't available on the iPhone.
