Metlink Commuter for Android
Bring back the widget please. Even after you set up your favourite stops and services (lines) you can't see up a default view, shortcut or widget. It takes half a dozen clicks and waiting just to see my normal stop information
Frequently doesn't work. Push notifications open a web site that has no further information on it.
This app does not provide necessary info. Says visit metlink site for further info. I had installed app to get info from app not from website. Filter does not allow to select specific services
Disappointing, difficult to find the info I need, cannot find the widget. All I need is my bus stop info on my home screen
Total typical government garbage! I'm running an s7 edge and it doesn't even work!
Without a doubt the worst app on my phone!
Poor app, documentation on updates non existence.
The widget is great but my stop doesn't update any more. The widget was the best part of this app.
Only works 50% of the time
It's quite difficult to use. Also, I really liked the widget because it was on my home screen and was easy to check as I was racing for the train station. Now I have to open an app, wait for it to load (which takes ages), go to my favourites and wait for that to load. By that time I'm at the station! I need something I can quickly glance at to see if I have to run or not.
Has some horrible usability issues, please get it reviewed by an independent. As a user of 1 train line only daily (KPL From either WEL or PARAM) I want to filter out and see that line only, and see only information that relates to that line when I start the app So I can see what are the imminent services on that line. As sure the exact same applies to most train service users. Instead I have to start the app, go to favourites, choose which station, see all services on all lines, select the next available service on KPL (could be placed anywhere on the list), open it, then review the service schedule.
Looks to have some good features, but the user interface is pretty cluttered and often unintuitive. For an obvious question like "when is the next bus at my favorite bus stop" it seems to make you work very hard to get to the answer. That's a problem.
I think this app is usefull but its so slow and im tapping on one of my favorites and it still doesn't go to the destination untill ages after. The speed needs to be improved! Bug fixes, what ever you have to do.
I like the app and it works OK. The widget is problematic in that I can add a bus stop. What is weird I have the widget installed on my Android TV box Minix and there the widget works correctly. Please fix the widget for phones.
Its fine. Everything people need is there somewhere. The app is incredibly slow and clunky though, in a way that it shouldn't be. Also please make a widget that tells you only your filtered and selected information, that would be incredibly useful.
Slow, irritating to use, faster to open a browser which means the app offers no advantage. Even if the app did everything the browser did there would be no point to an app. Unless there is a compelling advantage the app offers, I'm stuck on the browser method - which is not the best.
Not intuitive but it works (stress the help tab!). Also having a full timetable would be nice as I can "view full timetable" like it asks me to.
Slow to open 20 sec on top end lg g4, no way to auto open in favourite list mode (instead of slow map mode), and seems more data hungry than a competitor app.
Echo the comments of others that finding information important to you is hard as you have to click through screens. Also the push alerts are good but when you click on them you only get taken to the homepage and not the detail of the alert or even the alert list?!
As others have said this app is completely useless for trip/rout planning! There is absolutely no function to enter an address and then be provided with info on what bus or train to take and the walking rout from the stop/station! I'm sure older versions of this app had such a function or at the very least was integrated with Google maps! To the devs of this app, if you want an example of a good public transport app take a look at City Mapper and take a leaf out of their book! I just downloaded this app, its showing the 'real time' train times as pm and its currently am. i have no idea if the actual times given are accurate or if its showing me the night schedule as the next train time is 11 something pm but its only 9:55am now so it's not like the app just has pm instead of am displayed. Also the app shows due instead of a live update of how many mins the train or bus is from the station. Due could mean anything from under 10 min away to arrived!
Does a halfway job. What I want is an app. That I can place a widget on my phone. That knows my route. Say Tawa to Wellington. If my geo local is Tawa it shows the times of the next two. Maybe three trains to Wellington. If I'm in Wellington. The next two trains to tawa. . That would. Be useful.
Bad job. Very slow. Favorites should be journey rather than station based. Should have offline mode. Live data not in sync with station displays
Awful user experience. Non-native app. Push notifications the one potentially useful feature.
Very poor interface. Shows incorrect times. Use the PDF version or website not this app.
App is ok, widget is broken (won't accept bus stop codes)
Text on settings page is confusing. Help page is blank for me. Really needs an option to view an entire timetable, not just a single stop.
Slow, fiddly, and not good to use. Route maps don't work well at all.
Simply terrible. Not intuitive. Can't find routes.
Great app. Just a tad slow when selectu g favourites tab but love using it.
Totally useless. Hopeless for planning a journey. Dump it and start again
Kept freezing and wouldn't work at all.
Great app! Well done devs!
Ronseal app - does it exactly what it says on the tin!
The departure times switch between a time and how many minutes away, having to work out 72 minutes from now is not friendly. Favourites should be journeys, not stops.
What happened to trip planner? Put that on the app please!
Fix the damn back button
Guys please add trip planner
I was not first but I was third
Far too slow. Really slow!!!!!!!!

The widget was so much better. The developers have tried to do too much in this app. I provided feedback before this version was built sadly none of my suggestions were taken on board. Can I suggest you establish a customer group and work with them to design and build a better platform?? I would be keen to advise. And yes I'm in IT.
