There's too many ads on an app that you already pay to use the bus service. It's very inconvenient especially if I'm running low on time for a 10-second ad and the bus is coming in about 2 minutes. Live location of the bus doesn't work for my bus line so the only feature worth noting is the timables, but busses are usually late by 15 to 30 minutes at a time."

It used to work! However, the ads are inconvenient as they seem to appear when you really need to see the info on the app! Also, the timing of the bus is off. It's difficult to explain... you'll think you've missed the bus, but the bus arrives 3-4 minutes later. It's like it goes to the next bus pick up time before it completes the current one. Also, tickets purchased via Moovit never scan properly! You purchase a ticket, and when boarding, scan it, and get Ticket Not Valid. Embarrassing!"

Indispensable for getting around on the bus and commuter rail. Comes up with great options. The estimated walking times tend to be aggressive so you have to adjust for that. It would also be nice if it integrated into with real time bus tracking. However if you have this app and a real time tracker app it makes getting around easy, even in an unfamiliar city."
