No Frills, no Metra

Cephus259 · 13 years ago · v2.1

Works well for buses and Ls, but it lacks Metra, which is also a major Chi transporter. All in all well worth the price though.

Consistently Wrong

LanTok · 9 years ago · v3.2

Overestimates the time II will take for the bus to arrive. I have started to look at the map to see the exact location of the bus rather than rely on the time given by the app. If the app says "4 minutes," that means its at the bus stop. If it says "7 minutes," the bus is about 2.5 blocks away. If I forget and rely on the app, I miss the bus. Im going to try a new app.

It doesnt work

Editmichael · 15 years ago

Ive had it for a week and a half and I havent been able to get it to work yet. It crashes the second you hit a button.

Its APPLEs FAULT, not Flying Cranes

ChiDawgOne · 15 years ago

The app, actually, is AWESOME! APPLE broke the app when they designed iOS4. I have a certifiable statement from the developers. They submitted updates to Apple THREE (3) weeks ago, but Apple too busy fixing their Microsoft-style flubs to apparently cate (my view, based on research and not necessarily the opinion of Flying Cranes management or staff!). Suggest you download it anyway, because youll be alerted to the update and will be able to re-load for free!

finally!

well, ive been waiting a long time for the update for this app for ios4. i have to say, i wasnt disappointed. the app does exactly what it says it does, and while i havent had it long, i havent found any problems with it so far. the bus and train times are accurate so far, and i love having both in one app. it works really well in conjunction with maps and compass if you want to figure out your travel plans. the one star reviews on here mostly seem to be related to crashes after the release of ios4. now that it works, i think the app will get the ratings it deserves. i love it so far.

Favorites?

This app works fine, but it would be nice if instead of or in addition to "recent stops" it had a place where you could add favorite stops. I find it irritating that pretty much every day I have to search for the exact same bus stops to get to and from work.

Crashes very often

Margo80 · 15 years ago

I have bought this software basing on rating and it seems to be wrong decision. I was using it 5 minutes and it crashes 3 times. The other problem I noticed: it does not recognize all bus stops. I see a bus stop on a map but its disabled for selection and is missing in list. As an example you can try Jackson/Franklin bus stop. The idea is good, but implementation is raw. Will wait for updates.
