Bethesda Circulator for Android
Does not work
Does not tell you your location. Does not tell you direction of the bus. Does not tell you type of the bus (full vs. mini).
This app decided all of the sudden to stop working. Service is basic and not reliable.
This app needs work.
It's better than nothing. Would be better if it update more often, and especially if it would load the route. Haven't been able to use it in days.
Needs lots of work tho
Directional arrows and points of interest highlighted on the map would do wonders though
The worst location app ever. Not worth the time to download. Not accurate.
It needs directional arrows to identify which way the buses are going
Just started using this app and its great! So easy to use and accurate. Really makes the day easier
Needs some basic improvements.
Why does it open up the world map centered on Africa when this app only works with bethesda circulator??? Why do you make me pick from a drop down menu when the only option is bethesda circulator??? This app has so many w.t.f. illogical things built in to it...
Is not working. Asking for account code....
One could think with extremely expensive traffic tickets that provide the revenue for BUP that BUP could provide an app that lets you know how long until the next circulator is. But hey, at least this lets us confirm that the buses sitting dark at the metro are in fact not moving at the metro.
The app is a nice idea, poorly executed. First, there is the problem with the mystery Account Code that needs to be entered (it's BUP). Then, there is the problem that you have to manually select the route map every time you want to use the app (start the app, pull up the menu, select Routes, then check the nearly invisible box next to "BUP"). Finally, there is the annoyance that it won't let you use the phone's menu button - you have to select the menu icon on the map screen AND they have made the icon so small and pushed it so far to the left side that it's almost impossible to hit it with your finger. So, what should be a simple process of starting the app and looking at the route, becomes and five minute long exercise in frustration. It's faster to just walk and skip the bus. I wrote to BUP to complain about it, and they didn't bother to answer.
What a wonderful idea but why should there be a code page to begin with??
Startup is awkward at best on a android version and sometimes impossible without restarting phone.
I got a map. Essentially it was a google map that failed to zoom in on your location.
But this app is REALLY week, like a pre-alpha release. Heck, when I open it, I get a world map and have to click down to Bethesda. Keep at it BUP, nice idea, not there yet.
Finally found the code on internet. It is 'bup' for Bethesda Urban Partnership. The app is not perfect, but the bus localization is very accurate.
