No longer works! When I select a bus route I get a black screen.
The App Is Very Convient I Just Wish It Would work More Often .
Crashes pretty often on Samsung vibrant bit useable sometimes
Use for bus tracker I cant tell u how cool and useful this would be for any person using any part of septa transportation. Splendid programming.
Wonderful app. Would love the ability to make a home screen shortcut to the bus tracker for my routes.
Has not worked for a week now almost 2.
This is a piece of crap dont download
Won't even load anymore.
They finally Put the schedules in numerical order
Pick a route, select a stop and see your bus approaching on a Google map!
Nothing loads for new route 126. It also displays route 34 for the route 46 schedule. Htc evo 4g
Hasn't been working since Sandy hit but the free version does for some reason. This was a great app in the beginning but it has fallen off since.
life saver on a rainy day
The app stopped functioning.
Go with the free version. Only blank screens.
Crashes alot. Htc evo 4g
The updated free version didn't list the full train schedules so I bought the pay one... Still no full schedule, only the next couple hours.
Im so happy I downloaded this app!
This app is good. It is accurate. I can check the status of my train fairly easily, and I can trust that it is as accurate as Septa itself is with what it tells me. Any time the app has displayed information that doesn't reflect reality, I've been at the station to see that it's Septa themselves who can't get it right. Needs a notification for a specific train or bus rather than the entire line. And/or a widget.

Is the Pro Version going to be updated? I love the app but the schedules are all outdated
Change the icon for the button that switches departure aAnynd arrival locations, it looks like a refresh icon and confuses people, probably why people report incorrect times. Inconsistencies in times are not the fault of the app, times are pulled directly from Septa.
This was theft. Pro version has no additional features. They said there would be a trip planner. Not true. And kept getting glitchy and taking me to a blank screen. No help at all if I can't use it to plan a trip tomorrow. I want my money back.
When I was first introduced to this app I thought it was amazing. Now that it has been updated (with new schedules among other things) I again am very happy!
The new version has up to date schedules again as of 4/2/13, keeping those current seems to be a problem for many transit apps. I do miss the alarm feature of the old version that would wake me up as I got close to my stop, that was something none of the similar apps had.
This app would be more helpful if the buses were actually on time. What's the point in having a schedule when the buses just come whenever. The map that shows where the buses are doesn't work either!!
I've spent a lot of time standing in the cold, because the bus schedules are far more often wrong than right.
Easy and straightforward to use. I only use regional rail and my timetable is only a couple of taps away. recommended.
I've changed my review from 5 stars to 2 after the update this app sucks
Can be slow at times but as a regular regional rail rider the wake me up feature has saved me from missing my stop more than once (aside from being very cool)!! Additionally it's easy to see when your train will be late (often!) and the favorites make it much faster than the Septa website.
This app is just ok. Especially considering I paid for it. I mean, it doesn't even rotate. It does the job though. It's usually accurate about relaying delays, etc. No real complaints, but the app isn't anything special either.
I don't see it. Wish I would have read all the reviews before I bought it. Nothing special... Free apps just as good. Regret purchase.
I have used pro for about a year. It does not update as Septa makes changes (some changes made over a year ago!). Often does not respond/crashes. Loved it in the beginning now it's garbage. You may get lucky now and then. Go with the free version. ,
Seems to work for buses and subway, but not regional rail. Doesn't freeze or crash, just doesn't load data. It's strange because the free version works great, but I'd love to ditch the ads and have the favorites option. This app was $1.99 down the drain.
Pro version: I recommend it however, it gives no departure times for the 10 trolley at 63rd & Malvern. Also with bus tracker, no codes given to determine the difference between the red and blue colors of the buses - (which one is coming or going?). However seems better than its competitors.
This app is not that accurate im sittin on bus and it shows nothing no bus on map at all...
I have been using the free version and liked it very much, so I figured I'd give the Pro version a try. MISTAKE. It is slow, crashes and doesn't have some of the features of the free version. 1/2/13 Update - Update does nothing for stability or functionality of this program. Even the free version has become much less stable. Developer appears to have abandoned this app. Time to look for an alternative.

I bought pro to save favorites but it won't do that for me. Free version got an update weeks ago and pro is still waiting...
