It's nice
Very useful.
Love it!.
Considering this app is up kept by someone not working for drt the app is amazing. Now drt just needs to pay this person and work collebratively to add things like GPS to the buses and the app. Then the bus service will be worth 3.75
Made figuring out the buses MUCH easier for me
Would be awesome if you could see where the bus is in real time. Like have a map that shows where you are, what route you selected and the rough location of the bus location. Also pin the times above each stop :) oh and a NFC reader to check the balance of Presto cards!
I absolutly love this app however The only issue I have is that it constantly forces close. It was said that maybe my favorite stops were corrupted somehow but I've deleted thwm and re added then when that didn't work I re installed it and it keeps doing the same. I've gotten use to it doing this but it does get annoying and resulted in a 3 star rating because of it.
Once you have a set of favorite stops it's fairly easy to see where you need to be and when. "Crashes" from time to time for reasons I don't know about but restarting the app is all you need to do at worst
I had switched my android for a blackberry, but it didn't have this app, so a month later I got a samsung android. I'd be lost without it. Thank you. One thing I wish it had is a bus tracker so I know where my bus is.
This app has saved me countless times! Especially in the cold season. Its accurate and efficient. Only problem is that it crashes way too often.
It would be extra helpful if the app listed delays of busses or where the bus is exactly from GPS. I realize this would be difficult so for what the app offers now it's pretty helpful.
Would like to see direction included in nearest stops list, as often I am in an unfamiliar area. Edit: keeps pestering me for a review after I've already given one.
Very handy, but times seem wrong- buses are consistently a few minutes before the time stated (early), and it's been a pain a few times. Great otherwise!
If there is ever a bug that needs to be fixed I just contact the developer and he does his best to fix it. Times are always right and the options for favorite stops really comes in handy!!
It's a useful app. But it should count down in minutes till the bus reaches your stop because the bus never comes when it supposed to
But really busy.. The loading of the stops is quite lengthy but I guess necessary :)
Ask me to sign a petition and when I do I still get can't use the app cause it's at the notification screen about the petition once again. And no way to skip it.
Wish you could see delays for buses
Awesome app but drivers come early some times and won't stop.Please let them know
This is a great app that's been done independently. I wish the DRT got on board with this idea
The app now tells the time the bus will arrive not in how many minutes until it arrives.
It is good but not for people that don't have a cell phone
Shows the actually times of the when the bus is coming and when there running late.
Ever since I downloaded this app I haven't missed single bus... Keep up the great work!!!
Showing delays would be an important improvement
Am a traveler everyday on the buses and loving it just wish it can show you a GPS on how far the bus is to
No more paper. Have my favorite bus stops. Works great.
A short learning curve and all the information you could want is easily accessible.
Could be more accurate, idk why it decides not to.
I have used this app for the last 3 months and is great
It does the job.
Excellent app that has made using DRT a lot better!
Awesome app. Very accurate.
Check it all the time and extreamly good thanks
Transit app
Its pretty good.. once you learn how to use it.
Great App .. better then guessing that's for sure !!!
Great app
The feature from the website for how long until the next bus. Also the option to open straight to a the favorites page with time until next bus based on the live location of the bus would make this 5/5.

This app is so very helpful.... Now if we could only get the buses to show up on time.... Lol!
