Wondering where one can get shortcut to certain stops now

App is ten times better than the official Dublin Bus app.

Q70%
by Q####:

The only way I can imagine this app getting better is if Dublin Bus include real time bus locations to improve bus arrival time data. This thing used to crash. Now for months of recent usage it doesn't, at least for me. The GPS derived nearby stops is easy to find and saves using an excess of shortcuts. It has no useless features. You know the criminal who shoots the TV in RoboCop and says: "I like it!" THIS APP IS LIKE THAT GUN. BUT FOR BUSES. IN DUBLIN. STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

This app has always been superior to Dublin Bus app but developer has never sat on his laurels - latest updates include great features like stop alert alarms which can notify you in advance of live bus arrival time etc. Love it ! Thanks

Has never crashed on me (after over a year of use) and it's simple to use. The ads in the free version aren't particularly annoying, but I think it's only fair to pay a small amount for decent software. Good job.

Beautiful app! Easily the best looking Irish Android app available today. One of my most used apps. New alarm feature works great for those buses that jump from ETAs of 20 mins to 5 mins within 30 seconds.

Well done to the developer. I already liked before the latest upgrade and now just got better with the shortcut to see the bus route when browsing the bus stop. The bus alert is also a highlight.

One of the most useful apps on my phone. I love the new "track this bus" feature. No more running to the bus stop! Leisurely strolls all the way!

Route preview made me buy this app

Well worth paying to support such a great app! Go for it!

Route preview alone makes this app worth buying.

Great update

H70%
by H####:

Very good app. Quick load time, which is very important when looking for bus info. Like the Google maps integration. I think however, it's time for a facelift and a link to RTPI service messages.

Q70%
by Q####:

A lot better than the one provided by Dublin Bus. Gets the job done in a cleaner way and with more functionalities.

C70%
by C####:

My list of favorite Stops are gone I now have to click into the route to find the stop. As I'm in an area where I have the option of more than one bus this is a pain. Why was this removed. The short cuts to stops on home screen is not what I want as I don't need my screen clogged with a short cut for each stop I use regularly. It's ruined this app for me.

C70%
by C####:

Keep up the good work man! Very reliable, great UX (does what you expect it to)! Dev listens to the users. Bought this app just to show my appreciation.

C70%
by C####:

The ability to add a shortcut icon for my favourite stops, either in a folder or on my main screen sets this app apart from the official DB app.

by C####:

Edited previous review. Issues with timeouts appear less frequently - for whatever reason. Appreciate the offer of a refund from the Dev.

Fantastic app.

Hi, great app! However is it possible to add a refresh button for andriod wear? Currently have to exit and re-enter the stops to get a refresh of info. Also, would it be possible to allow andriod wear to add bus alerts as well? Thanks a lot!
