Horrible

Crash prone, long startup time and horrible design, with lots of popup prompts. Why on earth is a reminder timing a mandatory field for a bookmark?And now it's reported you are blocking other (much better) 3rd party apps? At least revamp your app with a better one before you do that! And please allow your bookmarks to be sorted, if not manually according to user's liking, at least automatically by name or distance.

Latest update has bugs

1.0.12Bus route 5 still has many stations (about half) without any station name and location. It just says (null). Map seems to work when a station has a name. With the un-named sites you go to who knows where on the map.1.0.11The latest update added some severe - that is they disable the apps functionality - bugs. The map no longer will locate you position. Loc. Services Icon comes on but nothing changes. Routes missing names of the bus stops and missing those stops on the map. Route 5 and 403 are the ones I've looked at. Please go back to the prior version until these issues are fixed and it would be nice to have email link to report bugs to avoid using a review for this. It WAS a pretty good app that was quite useful, for me anyway, that with a little improvement would have been 5 stars.

Great app but refreshing is annoying

Pressing the refresh button can be a bit annoying as even if the finger is just slightly off it will open the page where it shows all the bus stops for a service. Another thing is that it lacks the functionality to search and browse bus stops directly. You usually have to be near a bus stop to access its details.

LUI TUCK YEW READ THIS!

I don't see why SBS should monopolized the bus information. SBS is providing public transport service to Singaporean. It is public service! Though it is a listed company, it responsibility is no different from that of civil service. Now heed LHL call to be the humble servant, tell SBS to make the bus information available to ALL third parties applications. Competition is healthy, many of the apps are doing a better job in communicating the information to the public. As you can see from the IRIS rating here!

Simply awful

This app is both inaccurate and slow. How many times has it told me the bus is 10 minutes away (for about 5 minutes) to suddenly arriving? Often. Here is a key to the arrival times: Arriving= already gone. 5 min = immediately to 20 minutes. Don't try switching from wifi to 3G, it won't work. Close the app and restart. Getting ready for work and monitoring when the next bus will arrive? Refresh to update. 10 min...7 min... 4 min... OK go to the bus stop...suddenly 15 minutes. It might as well be random. Maybe it is. Utter garbage.

Very useful app in Singapore

With this location-aware app, you can easily locate nearby bus stops and know how long until each bus is due to arrive and is very useful if you find yourself in an unfamiliar location. It is like having an advanced information system in your pocket. The bookmarks are useful if you take a bus to work every day. The app can alert you as to when you should leave your house to catch a particular bus service at a particular time of day and/or day(s) of week. Nice app.

Gimped and unreliable

The software is slow to load even on an iPhone 4S. The bookmark feature would be good IF ONLY I can use it without having to set a reminder time? Come on, we don't just take the bus to and fro work at fixed times, how unrealistic is that? I really wish we had TranSGuide back. It was so much better. How much is SBSTransit paying to have this app developed again?

Poor replacement for 3rd Party Apps and even poorer attitude!

A poor replacement for third-party apps like SG Buses. Quite painful seeing someone reinvent the wheel out of misguided desire for data protection. We don't see airlines holding back route data from third-party book sites--their objective is to drive users to their buses and trains NOT their iPhone app!!! After all, the third-party apps did it for free and SBS is probably paying someone to do this. Quite clearly a case of a lack of financial prudence, to add to the lack of goodwill to passengers.

Some bus routes aren't in here

The information for at least one bus route (171) isn't in this app, so if I want to get information about the bus, i can't. Or if I didn't know where I was going and the 171 was the most direct route, I would be inconvenienced. I like the idea of being able to track bus arrival times, but it's not much use to me if the buses I need aren't on there.

Nice app, terrible attitude

Quite a good app, some rough points but I'm sure they'll get rounded off soon. However SBS/Comfort needs to open their minds and continue providing data to 3rd parties. Including bus arrival times in other apps (Transit@SG, GoThere etc.) makes it much more accessible and would increase ridership, increase the public profile of SBS and please thousands of users now made very unhappy by these apps recently being shutoff from bus data. This is the age of open APIs, mashups and a million apps, and SBS is missing the chance by being too closed with data APIs. Let your data be free, let others see what they can come with and everyone profits!
