"Confusing UI, does not update real time, map display even worse than Double Map, busses literally don`t show up on the map and I have the most up to date version of the app"

"This app is basically the University of Michigan trying to replace something that`s not broken. The DoubleMap app currently works great for seeing bus schedules. However, while this app serves it`s basic function, it has a very tacky feel to it."

"The timings are almost always wrong. The only time they`re correct is if the bus is about to pull up to the stop. Basically useless for planning your trip."

"Don`t see the improvement over doublemap, and the other reviews rightly note problems with icons and lag times. Please don`t retire doublemap until these problems fixed."

"This is the most useless update ever, double maps was a perfectly fine way to track the buses and was much smoother and efficient. Magic bus sucks."

"First five star review! The app in fact works incredibly well, so much so, that I don`t even have it installed on my phone. In my opinion, you can have the best experience by uninstalling this app and then proceeding to complain to the bus system."

"Has more useful information than DoubleMap but the bus icons are way too big (who needs a huge circle icon?) and moving the map is very prone to lag and freezing. In its current state, considerably worse than DoubleMap. I`m currently using Transit instead. Until this app is better than Transit, there is no incentive to use it."

"I really hope this is just an early version of the application because it is slow and glitchy right now. When you click on the routes, you select one and the route menu won`t go away unless you click on the map. Also 50% of the times, the bus I got on wasn`t even on the map. I don`t know why DoubleMap is being taken away, because this app is LITERALLY a copy of DoubleMap but a lot worse. I hope UMich makes this app better ASAP"

"Really bad app. Not accurate. I waited inside because there`s no outside stop for domino`s. Tracker showed the bus far away. But 2 went by while I waited."

"Delivers inaccurate and delayed information. Will ruin your commute if you rely on it. I don`t know why they are forcing us to migrate to a broken app. A shame."
