Where's my MBTA Bus? App Reviews

64 add

No gps

It cannot tell where you are.

No longer works

Throws an error for route 112 and never displays any info.

Perfection!

Is hands down the best MBTA app, always accurate and I love how I can watch the bus coming on the map.

No Use for Me

I downloaded this app because Im visiting from out of town, and the bus route Im using does not have a published schedule on the web. Apparently this app gets its info from that same place, because the info was also unavailable on the app. The 504 bus is likely not a frequently used route, and apparently MBTA sees no need to publish its Sunday schedule - if in fact it runs on Sunday at all - I still cant find any information on it.

Best MBTA app

After moving to Boston, Ive tried lots of transit apps, but this is the best one. Great features and functionally (like the ability to view the bus route of every line), plus supportive developers make this a must have for Bostonians.

Dont buy unless you have a time machine

This was once a useful app but quality has degraded to the point where it is of no value.

It never work

I got the lite version after hearing about it months ago. The lite version didnt run. So I though maybe the paid version is better. I paid and it NEVER RUN! Such a waste of money.

Great when it works, which is only 1/2 the time

I love knowing when my bus is coming! What is less helpful is when the bus leaving my house is coming when I am trying to leave work. Even when I hit back to the home page, the next time I look for q prediction I get a buffering icon while it looks for my last stop...for 5 minutes. Its very annoying and there seems to be no way to stop it, even restarting my phone.

So slow its almost unusable

Good functionality, decent design (if a bit odd by iOS standards), but response time is often painfully slow. Several times I have opened this app hoping to quickly find the location of a nearby bus only to be faced with a spinning cursor for a few minutes with no way to abort any updates or try again. Thats unacceptable.

Used to work great...

Not sure what happened since now its not working at all

Hasnt steered me wrong yet...

Keeps me on time to work, etc. pretty good stuff. Thanks!

Unreliable

Half the time the app doesnt work. Times are not always reliable and buses disappear from the queue. So youll think youre waiting 2 minutes and it will disappear and next bus will be in 18 minutes. OR if youre at the first few stops of a route it will say 2 minutes and youll still be waiting there in 15 for it to even start the route.

Never works

Every single time I try to use this app it says "No predictions are available at this time." Every. Single. Time.

Rarely worth the headache

I consistently have issues with a bus being predicted and then disappearing and not returning. So I get to my stop thinking I have 8 minutes to wait for the next bus when its really 70. The missing buses always line up with the schedule too so thats doubly confusing.

Paid and used for over a Year

Accurate about 30% of the times I used it. Poor user interface, no feature upgrades. I just downloaded Transit which is worthy of a paid app, but free. I would not suggest this app to anyone. Deleting today.

Accurate bus predictor

Works really well

Tells you when the bus is coming

Gives you the arrival time, sweet and simple. The app uses info from the T, so any problem with busses that go out of service are on the As a T rider youve got to know how amazing they are at telling you whats going on during a delay, right? Not. I like that it give you times for other busses at the same stop. Great to see another route you might not even know about.

Wheres my mata bus

Simply the best!! Thanks

Wheres my bus

Love it

Most valuable app!

Dont know how I got along for so many years without this app. No more waiting in the cold for 40 minutes when I can do a quick errand or get a cup of coffee.
