I know it only takes a few seconds but it can get annoying if you have to do it everyday. -- Spaghetti207, 2025-01-02 ### *---- "Too many features!!!" Tram and bus time are the most important feature of this app but the times displayed are live! Tram and bus times will suddenly go back 10 - 15 mins. Please just focus on getting the most important thing right, because you are only providing misinformation and frustrating your customers. -- MorphiN81, 2024-12-31 ### *---- "Go back to the old app!" Terrible, unusable, go back to old app -- Crightz1, 2024-12-24 ### ****- "It has improved a lot recently" The app has improved significantly in recent updates. The enhancements in functionality and overall user experience are evident and greatly appreciated. Thank you for your continued efforts to refine and optimise the app. These updates have made a noticeable difference, and I look forward to seeing further developments in the future. -- NRL2024, 2024-12-22 ### *---- "“Live times” aren’t live, no map tracker, etc" There used to be the Go Northwest app that I used for my journeys. They had live times that were always correct, and you could see where they were on the map. Bee Network app has none of that functionality, and buses now frequently disappear off the “live schedule” as they “arrive” every other time I wait for a bus. I can’t understand it. It also just randomly signs you out every few weeks, which puts me in an unforeseen mess, especially in the city centre where signal is limited. I thought nationalising stuff improves it. Definitely not. This is a massive downgrade. -- DanielHaslam15, 2024-12-17 ### ****- "Please create quicker access to the ticket" When you are in a time schedule and the bus shows up, there are too many buttons you need to press before pulling up the active ticket which means the bus driver is waiting. Please create quicker access to the active ticket wherever one is in the app. -- Tiene87, 2024-12-14 ### *---- "So Confusing" The deal, I was going to get the Bee Network card. I travel ocassionally on public transport. The Bee Network App and Bee Network card are two different things. Why not under the same login? If we can’t intergreat a card with an app I have little to no confidence in the service.. Another waste of time! -- seanlevegan, 2024-12-05 ### *---- "Not working" I was charged for bus ride, because your app didn’t load the ticket and driver said it’s not my problem. Very bad service and communication between Bee network and Stagecoach and Metrolink! Be aware drivers and controllers don’t care, if this app not working!!!! -- Valentyn123, 2024-11-14 ### *---- "No live tracking" Insane that with gps on all buses there never seems to be live tracking. This would be the most useful tool to make the app worthwhile. -- CMS2000, 2024-11-09 ### *---- "Utterly unreliable" Buses just don’t show up or they’re so late that two will turn up at the same time. The app will just lie to you saying a bus is 3 minutes away for it to be miles away or never turn up. -- Soulsborne enjoyer, 2024-11-08 ### **--- "Not very useful" Only useful if you want to buy tickets. Not any good for checking status of concessionary pass or anything else. -- Stirling Smith, 2024-11-05 ### ***** "Great App with Tracking" Great app with amazing bus tracking functionality-with great features such as journey planning and timetables ! -- thatmanmeadows, 2024-11-05 ### *---- "Worse than previous version" Worse than the app it’s replaced. It’s confusing, messy and very difficult to navigate. Shame given how the Bee Network itself has improved services -- Oskareel, 2024-11-02 ### *---- "Too expensive" 82£ for monthly bus pass is a joke. A PUBLIC BUS 82£??? One never gets to seat because it’s always full, never on time, rude drivers that drive recklessly like they are on drugs. We already don’t have money yet the fees keeps increasing with the same rubbish service. If we had the money we all would’ve had cars. -- lionelkafunda, 2024-11-01 ### *---- "Poor" A disaster. Very unreliable with bus timetables. Constantly misleading users with the live tracking. -- SteelCav45, 2024-10-30 ### *---- "Not fit for purpose." Having had first buses app for many years which was always reliable at telling live arrival times accurately. Now the replaced bus services are run by the bee network (stagecoach). This app has a similar live buses function. However this is not accurate at all. Many times the bus has already passed the stop but still shows as due to arrive. Some buses just disappear off the system altogether too. It’s just not fit for purpose. -- jaybee1900, 2024-10-30 ### *---- "Missing basic information" This app cannot even answer a simple question of how long will the tram journey from Chorlton to Rochdale, just on tram, one line door to door. Bring back the Metrolink app. -- Andy Pieman, 2024-10-30 ### *---- "Bus times" Please sort out ur times because they are far from accurate -- its your boy daddy, 2024-10-19 ### *---- "Needs 1 day tickets" Doesn’t allow purchase of single day tram tickets, which feels a bit self-defeating. Reasoning is apparently as people would buy a ticket when they saw an officer, but even just to buy a ticket with a 5/10 minute delay until it became active would address this issue. Pointless. -- Shiney1871, 2024-10-16 [View all Bee Network reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Bee Network Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Free | United Kingdom | Travel | #106 | | Top Free | New Zealand | Travel | #145 | | Top Free | Ireland | Travel | #313 | | Top Free | Nigeria | Travel | #314 | | Top Free | Denmark | Travel | #414 | | Top Free | Norway | Travel | #425 | | Top Free | Pakistan | Travel | #443 | ## Bee Network Discovered Keywords -
