This morning I missed a bus. Since the app was updated, it has become a regular situation. You saw on the app that the bus was delayed, and you could see no bus approaching or anywhere nearby, so you don't go to the bus stop and wait there. Then out of nowhere, a "ghost bus" shows up, right on time, while the app still shows it will be delayed for 15 minutes. Bus delay has also been a regular situation. Sometimes late for 5 or 10 minutes, sometimes it just disappears. I live 3 miles from campus, and one time I had to walk home with my friend. At that time, the bus was delayed for over 1 and a half hours. The bus had not arrived at the bus stop I was supposed to take it by the time I arrived home! This has been a dilemma. Should you wait on time and expect the bus not show up, or should you trust the app?

I rely on this app to know when to catch the buses.. and it's not going to work in only a couple months because it is incompatible with iOS 11. The app gravely needs updated anyway. The interface looks extremely dated and it is far from being user-friendly. It should at least have gps capabilities so it knows what bus stop you're near instead of having to zoom in on a map to find your stop. In addition, it should show what buses run from your stop instead of having to choose from a huge list of all the buses and then hunting stops on the map. I've used many public transport apps in many cities and this is by far one of the worst.

Update: The app is updated and works on iOS 11 now! I can finally see the live updates of where the buses are. I only wish that the routes would be highlighted rather than just showing the stops. Thank you for updating the app so we can use it again! Original: Huge let down. I rely on the CATA buses to get to my classes but now I can’t even use the app that was designed to help me use the buses. I can’t see when the next bus will be coming and that’s a huge problem. Please update the app!

This is the only CATA bus app that shows both when a bus is expected to show up, and when it actually should show up. Many times the bus will show up at the early time, when it is actually supposed to, meaning it arrives 10-15 minutes earlier than it says it will. This is the only app that shows the proper time and keeps me from being late. Please update for iOS 11 as it is a lifesaver

I like this app a lot but I think it could have improvements, like an arrow pointing which way the busses are moving so I don't have to keep closing and reopening to try to get the busses to move faster! Also if an estimated time of arrival was there when you tapped on a stop that would be awesome.
