This app was great up until a few updates ago. It was indispensable before, and now I don't even bother using it much. Previously, you were able to view the buses move in real-time along the selected bus route. Now, I'm not sure why that function disappeared since the posted arrival times aren't accurate and often when it states that the "bus is now coming", you've already missed it by a quite a few minutes. Please bring back real-time tracking!

The real time bus positions are not available due to TransLink getting ransomwared; they are still trying to sort the issue out. Probably applies to a lot of the live bus data as well. Nothing I can do.

Didnt realize how much i depend on this app until it stopped working. Normally this app works great! Tells you (with decent accuracy) what time the bus is coming, you can zoom in to any location and click the bus stops to check times. My favourite part is being able to see where the busses actually are, real time; using that info I gauge when to leave my house. However recently the bus trackers have been totally inaccurate or missing. The arrival times are mostly useless without being able to double check their accuracy with the bus trackers

Generally useful and easy to use, and I like the additional functionality over the official TransLink app, like being able to see where the buses are on the selected route. However, a recent update changed the spacing of the menu, so the cross-streets have been cut off of my favourited bus stops. I have favorited a few stops along same road, so my favourites menu is just a list of "##### @ Westbound 6th Ave @", so I just have to guess at which one is the one I want. Seems like an easy fix!
