Pros and cons of NYC Bus Time - For Live MTA Buses app for iPhone and iPad
NYC Bus Time - For Live MTA Buses app good for
I use it everyday. It really works and has saved me both time and frustration.
This app inexplicably fails to include my bus route (M66) in its list of nearby buses ninety-five percent of the time. Sometimes I get no list at all, but when it works its great.
Certainly not the most aesthetically pleasing app around but its dead accurate - way more so than any other bus app or the schedules themselves. Completely essential - I wouldnt ride the bus w/o it.
I really love this app, it tells me the right time and where is it the bus, no complaints at all
Im now meeting the bus instead of waiting and chasing. Save lots of time.
Some bad moments
Usually ok and quick but goes through periods of crashing. Needs a little more consistency.. So occasionally Ill use a different app.. Great too have a few..
It was great until recently. The times are waaay off these days. I hope they fix whatever problems theyre having.
Would be nice to have a link to the line schedules to see a close proximity to when the bus will be at a specific stop. A better indicator to which direction the traffic is flowing would help as well. Otherwise great app, best so far!
This app is very helpful when updated. I have been using it for over a year and when its not updated it cannot detect anything. Its accuracy needs improving. In Brooklyn, I need to add 5-6 minutes for the app to be accurate.
I have been using 3 apps to show my express bus timings and so far this app has been the most accurate. It has worked consistently since I have been using it. No hangs and no data unavailable messages. I like it.
It works well enough once youre standing outside waiting for a bus.
