Dublin Bus

If you want a really good Dublin Bus app get the Next Bus Dublin App, it has so much more ie. a picture of where you are standing of the bus stop so you know you where are at in case it's the first time you have used that stop, each stop has a filter so you can omit the buses that you don't need

Does not give you the real time information. Even the board in the stop displays this same information. Both dont reflect if there are any delays in the services. Dont rely on this to get the real time information

Skips from like 15/16 minutes to 1 or 2 minute all the time causing me to miss the bus. Like what's the point in havin the app??? So annoying!!

If you want to figure out in what general millennia your bus is coming in, congrats, you found your app. But if you want to know if it is coming in the next 10 minutes, good luck. Oh so many a time have I checked the app for it to tell me the next bus is in 30 minutes, then just as I'm about to reach my stop a minute later, the bus flies past me and my stop.

Too many times it doesn't work. Had to get the real time info from the website. Try the next bus app. Dublin bus take note as it's far better than this outdated app.

As I stand here at the bus stop on Amiens Street, I'd really like it if your app represented, in any way, reality. I've seen ghost 14s pass by for 30 minutes now and am currently looking at a 14 that hasn't moved past 6 minutes for a good 20 minutes. Either your buses are completely detached from reality or your app is.

One minute it works, next it crashes, and after reinstalling still the same problems. Can Today FM not afford a working app, or at least show some efforts to fix the problems.

Puts up time that bus is due no show, you just find out that the bus has been cancelled, reason unknown next time 30 munite after ten munite you see the same bus coming, those it means the app is faulty or the buses are just late, jokes

I've both ios & android. 16gb phones ios with loads of applications which loads fast & android is brand new which is dead slow. Even bus will come to stop from station before RTI , happens on mobile network & WiFi.

the map view not good anymore. doesn't show any bus stops as push pins like it did ...please attend to this....

The buses just disappear from the real time, says 2 minutes then disappears and says 10 minutes. It's very frustrating, defeats the purpose of the app and makes me late!!!

App crashes on individual stop "show on map" every time. Happens on two different phones, both have latest update.

Worst app ever. False realtime info I waited for it and believed on the realtime values for bus 11, it didn't come and wasted my time.

I wish we had a good quality Dublin bus app. This one really is quite poor. The "Search by stop number" doesn't recognise input so you need to just scroll endlessly until you find the number you're looking for (there's thousands of listings!) The text is too small and the overall experience is very cluttered and confusing. Some pages don't allow zooming and the text is tiny. Too much information presented to the user who may be looking for something simple. Needs better organisation/UI/UX.

Pretty decent but I think it could benefit from a few other features like either Google backup (so you don't lose your favorites if you need to reinstall app / install to a new device and improved caching . Still, it's free and mostly reliable

I wrote the review just 2 mins ago but it got deleted. Riding a camel would be more accurate and would have brought me places quicker

Rubbish app but hardly surprising from a rubbish company. Anytime you go to show on map the app crashes, I suppose they've no money to fix the bugs as they have to pay the drivers way too much or they just strike over and over again. Useless App, Useless Company with parasites as staff.

Disgrace that major functions do not work, such as searching for bus numbers (have to scroll through a list), searching for location etc. The fact that this was publicly funded makes it more irritating, this would not happen in the UK or Berlin.

When the waiting time at a stop gets close to arrival of the bus, the bus completely disappears off the app. Sometimes I think I've missed a bus and had to take a taxi when all that happened was the app didn't show the bus! Happens all the time

Buses appear with minutes of arrival then when it's refreshed the bus disappears completely. Very very annoying

Does the job I want, moved to Dublin 6 months ago and would have been lost without the app. The location of the bus when viewing route maps is a nice touch.

Totally out of sync with bus times as I write this according to the app bus was due in 7 mins I just checked again now it's not due for another 20 min !?? This is all the time now .

Doesn't work that well, a lot of times the buses simply arrive way before expected, like what is supposed to take 8 minutes, in two minute it goes to 1 minute left. Not something to trust that much.

Busses will appear and disappear on the app, and count down to busses that never arrive. Constant crashing and closing

Not accurate at all! Irrelevant app

So frustrating!! The time jumps from 14/15 mins to 1/2mins.... can't judge the bus at all with it.

Showing that the bus will arrive at your stop in say 3 mintues and then suddenly stops showing on the app. Gotta fix this guys! Happened to me numerous times but haven't bothered letting you's know

There are a number of problems with this application. (1.) When performing a search by stop number or by route, the entire real time data set is downloaded to the phone which is very slow. Why is a search query not sent first from the phone to the server and respond with a smaller amount of data? (2.) When viewing a bus stop the app displays a list of routes which can not be clicked. Why not allow the user to open it and display a list of more stops for that route? (3.) Why can only stops be added to favorites and not routes?. (4.) Why can alerts not be set for individual routes passing a stop? When it is raining especially, nobody wants to stand outside in the rain, but they also don't want to miss a bus that only passes twice a day. (5.) Why are the static timetables not displayed as well as the real time information? When the real time server is down for unscheduled maintenance then the app is completely useless. Overall this app demonstrates a lack of software design, planning which is demonstrated by a lack of basic usability. Made by people who never took a bus in their life. Where did the developers get the non functional requirements? It works, but not well.

Would have gave 5 only its seems to operate by the timetables so isn't the most accurate. May I suggest operating by a GPS tracker on the bus, then it will tell you exactly how many mins away it is,. I've just stood in the freezing cold for over 20 mins for a bus that was ment to be 9 mins

For people who say the Real Time Info doesn't work during the day, it can be because you've lost Internet connection. If it's during the night (12 to 5am ish), there are no buses at night, hence no real time info. Timetables, a route planner and news among more things are available. Works perfectly.

The times for the 67 bus is terrible, I've looked for the bus on the app and lists even bus apart from the 67. And it shows the later bus that could be in 48 minutes for example but the earlier one won't show, very unreliable

Problem on Dublin Bus App. with at least 2 route numbers . Route 25a is now called No.2. When I click to see on map the app says it is stopping! Never found this problem before. Also the actual routes 2 and 3 are non existent, I think? I re installed the App. but same result as before

It's a great app but it would be great if when you clicked into the stops it showed you the Google Street View of the stop on it, similar to how the unofficial app does. Great otherwise!

Put in Rathmines and the route planner finds nothing which is pretty useless. Mind you if you know the bus stop number, just like everyone does when they are planning a journey, er.. Not, it is great. Not a patch on TFL

I really wish we had a good quality Dublin bus app. This one is quite poor. The text is too small and the overall experience is very cluttered and confusing. Some pages don't allow zooming in and the text is tiny. Too much information presented to the user who may be looking for something simple. Needs better organisation.

More problems. Several routes only show the first digit of the route number. eg.no.39a is shown as 3.. Difficult to read the name of the stops. When I now click on 'show on map' the app closes down. I reported it to Dublin Bus but no change, I will be downloading a better app. today.

It freezes a lot. The last version never did. I loved the older versions.

Good app at the start bit now it doesn't pick up stops, routes - just comes back with no routes when it worked before. Please fix!!!!!

Does the job I want, moved to Dublin 6 months ago and would have been lost without the app. The location of the bus when viewing route maps is a nice touch.

Constantly crashes. Very annoying
