I’ve been using this app for 4 years. It is the very definition of a minimum viable product. UI is very clunky and poorly designed. Times are inaccurate, although that’s most likely an issue with the system the U uses for bus times, and is not the fault of the app. Incompetent developers who pushed an update before thanksgiving which crashed the app on devices using iOS 13. Xcode literally has functions to test out your build on various devices and iOS versions, and you guys didn’t think to test it out on the version of iOS most people run? Honestly the U could hire freshmen students in computer science majors and they’d hobble together a better app than this garbage.

The time of the bus is always inaccurate. It jumps from 2 mins away to 15 mins away. The only useful part about it is you can track the buses yourself.

This app is so frequently inaccurate that it is pointless to rely on. While more accurate when class is in session when the buses run every 5-10 minutes, it has been completely useless to use over winter break when the Campus Connector runs every 15 minutes. Waiting at a stop in the morning in -10 degree weather for 12 minutes watching the app tell me that 2 buses have come and gone is incredibly frustrating. It’s much better to just figure out the general time the bus you want hits your stop.

This app is the height of incompetency. Rarely accurate, and many times will show busses arrive and leave at the stop you are standing at when no such busses exist. This app should be done by students in a relevant department and they should be held to a reasonable standard. I have stood in the rain watching magical busses come and go on my app enough times, I am uninstalling. You are better off guessing arrival times.

This app is horrible. It is never accurate and cause many students to miss buses. Minneapolis has extreme winter weather conditions and students should be able to rely on this app to provide accurate busing information but it doesn’t. The times listed are frequently off by up to 10mins.
