User Reviews for DC Metro and Bus
Bugs!
Fix the bug where the bus disappears off the map! It is so infuriating when you’re trying to time your morning commute, weighing out whether you’re going to sacrifice food, makeup, feeding your pet, or all the above just to be at the stop on time—only to either rush there and wait another 6 minutes when it says arriving in 2, or abandon all hope because the bus has completely disappeared from the queue. Don’t worry though, half the time you can feel like an idiot because it’ll magically REAPPEAR 1 minute before arrival. Every move you make based off this app is a gamble. Just fix it there’s no reason for this. And the UI could be a lot more pleasing to the eye.
App Works Great—- then bus *disappears*
This app is fantastic, until suddenly there’s no data. This has happened multiple times when tracking the T2 bus from my home in Bethesda southbound to Friendship Heights, and northbound from Friendship Heights towards my home in Bethesda. “WMATA reporting no data” appears on the screen. So frustrating. Makes an otherwise fantastic app completely useless. Several times in Friendship Heights, my bus is tracked by the app, and I time my arrival at the stop for 10 minutes before the bus is predicted to arrive. A few minutes after my arrival, that bus disappears from the app and the next bus (which is to arrive 30 or so minutes later) is the only one showing up on the app! What happened? Did my bus show up early? No, about 8 minutes later, my bus shows up at the stop (not on the app), and the driver is oblivious to the problem. (There is also the additional problem that buses show up at the stop with Not In Service on their displays, and you have to ask the driver to identify their bus— super annoying). I want to do right by the environment by using public transportation, but WMATA and this app have not ironed out the kinks.
Ad free?
I’m wondering what happened to the ad-free version. I purchased it some time ago but am not able to reactivate with this update. The ads aren’t the big fulls teen ones that seemed to pop up at the worst possible time, leaving the schedule unviewable. Now the ads are small, but still annoying!!! I might purchase ad-free again if I could find how to do it, but it’s not under settings or alerts - at least I couldn’t find it!! 3-stars only because of that. I love this app!
Ads are wrong format - don’t close
As I’ve reported to app support several times now, the formats of some ads have the close button (X) in the upper right hand corner. For most smart phone users, that’s where information for the phone is, so you can’t press the X to close the ad when it’s fine. And often you have to manually close out (which is not possible) even when the full as ends. It’s really frustrating and means I can’t access info in a timely manner. This seems to be a flaw in the upgraded versions too.Please only use those ads that either close automatically or have the close option at the bottom of the page.
App is Great! Although needs emergency instant messenger
Love the app really useful and always works. Best feature is the metro map. However, there should be a way to instantly report things/alert metro police. For instance right now on the metro there is a homeless, crazy, or drunk person stumbling throughout the cart and has not gotten off. It would be nice to have an instant messenger to alert your organization when disorderly conduct that is not criminal is occurring so you will be able to remove this person from bother the paying customers. Or when for the 100th time in the hour the kids take over some of the cars, blast music and dance.
Useless
This app is so useless. 0/10 would not recommend. First, the ads are out of control. If you’re trying to do something quickly to figure out your route, don’t even bother because 3 ads will pop up that you have to wait to clear before you can do anything. Next, the Silver Spring station bus bays are not included in the routes for buses that begin and end at the station. Last, the stops are not comprehensive in the list. I was looking for a bus so I could go back home and the app was absolutely no help in figuring out where I could get on because where I actually found the bus was not listed!
Intrusive ads
At some point the app was updated and the ads are much more frequent and intrusive. I see many full screen ads and sometimes it’s hard to figure out how to close them. It’s unfortunate that paying customers have to deal with this, but I also understand the metro is budget constrained. I hope they can switch to small banner ads at least. The constant full page ads make the app a chore to use. I just want to see when the next train is arriving
Great app!
This app does just what I need it to do. It tells me how long until the next few trains and which lines they are. I have found it to be very accurate, and it loads up immediately, unlike the WMATA web page. I like that you can try it free with ads. After 3 days of using it, I paid for the ad-free version. Definitely worth the cost for me. Note that I only ride the train, so can’t comment on buses.
Washington Metro
I am delighted to say your metro system is just wonderful! We just spent our first week in Washington, a delightful surprise. One of your top attractions (but with powerful competition !!!) Spotless carriages and stations , pleasant and helpful staff. One negative for newcomers… Metro stations are not signposted!! A significant issue. Fares are very reasonable and zero graffiti noted! We are world travelers -/ Sydney, Frankfurt, Rome, Paris London and worst of all… Boston- our current home! Thank you for a wonderful experience —- Washington and it’s Metro!
Serious decline for Metro Bus times
The real-time predictions for arrivalsof metro buses on the J1,2,3 line used to be spot on. In the past 4 months they become so unreliable that I can no longer use them to know whether I will miss or catch the bus. The ID of 1,2 or 3 is random although fortunately any of them will take me to the Medical Center Metro. But coming home, it is outrageous and a number of times I wished I had known the times were so off I should have taken an Uber or called someone to pick me up. Metro train schedules were ok but you don’t need the app once you are in the station. I keep hoping the old reliability will return but was disappointed yet again today. What happened and when will your real-time get real again?
