London Bus Checker

5 stars app

I’m not sure if this is run by the same. Developer, sold to a new developer or the company sold to a new owner but whichever it is, they have turned an indispensible part of my travel toolkit into a useless ad clickbait trap. A modest fee would be preferable to this. Complete fail.

This app used to be great. Now it either shows buses that never turn up or doesn’t show buses that do. You might as well guess for all the good this does now. It’s been like it for about a year and I’ve finally given up hope it will get back to how it was. Deleted.

And that is saying something considering the London bus system… Was once great, now completely unusable. 🤬

They should make a paid version and get rid of the annoying adverts which really spoil this app for me. Just want a simple bus times app, not one that throws up annoying adverts most times I need to check the bus schedule at a bus stop. Removing this app!

Used to be a good app but the new video ads make it useless. Going to be dumped

The old London Bus Checker had a Watch app that was perfect: nearby stops at a glance without getting out your phone. I can only assume it was canned because the phone is where the ads get shown. But there's no indication that if I shell out to stop the ads there will also be a Watch app. Also, the interface is generally much poorer than the old app. Disappointed.

Agree with previous people. Don’t mind ads. But an ad every single time you try to use, and multiple times per session makes it impossible. A shame because it could be a great app. But don’t bother.

Thank you for changing this bus checker to include bloody adverts! I was forced to update it as the current one wouldn’t work anymore. You’ve changed it for the worse!

This app used to be absolutely indispensable in London and I used it every day. However, ever since we had to download this ‘new’ version last week, it has become completely unusable due to the ads. I’ve now deleted this (the app we all knew and loved has long since gone), and I’m using the alternative ‘Bus Times’ app instead. Incredible fall from grace.
