About TorontoBusMap

This app shows locations and predicts bus times in Toronto using GPS info from the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC).
Please email bostonbusmap@gmail.com if you have any problem, and please report a crash if you see one. Twitter feed for bug updates: @bostonbusmap

Basic usage:
- choose a mode by clicking the button on the upper right corner. You can see all vehicles at once, vehicles for a single route, bus predictions for a single route, or only bus predictions on favorited stops
- choose a route by clicking the menu button and clicking "Routes". You can also type in the route in the search textbox
- click on a stop to show the next few buses that are driving by.
- click 'more info' to show more predictions for that stop
- click 'report problem' to report a problem with the predictions
- click the star in the popup (see screenshot) to mark a stop as a favorite
- choose a favorite stop by pressing the menu button and clicking "Favorite stops"
- center on your current location by clicking the menu button and choosing "My Location". The speed and accuracy of location information depends on your phone location settings. You can tweak those in Home -> Settings -> Location & Security
- draw the path along a route by clicking the menu button, going to Settings and selecting "Show route path"
- this app should work for all touchscreen devices that are Android 1.5 and up (which means pretty much all Android phones and tablets). Please let me know if something doesn't work

This app is simply the best and most accurate. Not only can we get stop predictions, we can track the buses progress via their GPS transponders in real time. A bit buggy at times and even doesn't respond but I think it has more to do with phone hardware than APP problems. **Note for George Chang** This app does not belong to or is owned or supported by the TTC. The TTC version actually sucks. This version is much better.

This app is awesome! I like being able to know the bus number. It is also very accurate. Also very helpful knowing exactly where the bus is. One suggestion: can you add a bus fleet number lookup? Like transsee ttc (website)has. So that I can find where the Orion 5 buses are without having to go to the internet?

A bit buggy at times and even doesn't respond but I think it has more to do with phone hardware than APP problems. Overall I highly recommend this APP for all TTC users! I wish we could set a label for favorite stops like, "going to grandma's" as a title followed by the normal displayed info.

Updated the app recently and now when I open it ll I get is a blank map... all the buttons & search bar are still there and functional... but I'm getting a blank screen. Plz fix & I'll fix my review. I hope it gets fixed cause this is the best bus app there is. EDIT: new update won't open... just crashes every time. Don't make me use rocket man PLEASE! I love this app... what happened? Edit 2: uninstalling for now because reinstalling didn't fix the crashing. This sucks... I love this app.

Very reliable app! Being able to track the buses and see exactly where they are in the map is really helpful. The bus number helps a lot too — and this is one of the few apps that I've seen with this feature! The user interface is simple and very easy to learn! The best part is that its weight is extremely small!

Awesomeness. If there was an option to search a specific address and the app could center there it would be ultra awesome but manually being able to search the map and seeing all vehicles at once blows me away nevertheless. I'm in love.

Perfect app! Sometimes a little laggy, hence the missing star, but I've never missed a bus since downloading! I've downloaded this app to every one of my android devices and I absolutely love it. Got all my friends to download it as well, and now they understand how I was able to stalk (find) them so easily when they said they were on a bus. And now we are never late or left waiting for hangouts! Thanks for creating this app

This app blew me away. It's SO easy to use & extremely reliable. It makes commuting so much easier, not to mention more fun. I really like that it gives you the individual bus numbers (identification/registry numbers) as I have had multiple issues with the TTC over the years but never had a way to find out which bus & respective driver need to be held accountable (investigation can't be done without the bus ID number.) Extraordinary app. BUT now it refuses to load stops I select sometimes.. FIX THIS PLEASE

I have two apps that I use to check my busses schedules. This app works always for any stop including subway stations.

No other TTC app comes close to this one. I even prefer using it over Google Maps' bus schedule. Accurate bus predictions and tracking lets me know exactly how fast or far away my next bus is. Amazing app!

Real time data. You will never miss a bus

R70%

This is the best of all the TTC tracker apps I've seen and tried, and it's free! It shows the next bus or streetcar arriving in real time based on GPS. Highly recommended!
