Radar: Metro Vancouver Buses

For showing bus times, delays or early buses, this is THE app. It’s far superior to Translink or texting for bus times. A map helps and you can change between minutes the bus is due and actual time. That said, it fails a lot. In fact, for every few times I use it, it fails at least twice as much. Loading buses fails. At the top it says update failed or timed out. Annoying as heck. Mist of the time I close it and text bus info. If I need accuracy, I shut down my phone and open the app again. However, this is tedious and annoying. I wish they would just fix that glitch. It’s been there since the app came out. I’ve seen it through multiple phones as have others I’ve recommended it to.

For the most part, the app works well. I feel it would be easier to use if every time I open it, it defaults only to the area I am in and not see the whole lower mainland. Every time I open it to look for a stop, I need to shrink down to my location before I can find a bus stop. When a user opens the app, you either are using a saved stop or route so no problem there. Or, you are looking for stops near by. Change this and the user can save a lot of time when searching. Thanks for your follow up Andrew. I was not aware of the feature you described of one tap and the app will zoom into my current location. Thanks for that.

It’s been close to 5 months and still isn’t fixed. At this point the weather app is more accurate than this app. Better idea to just blindly guess when a bus is going to show up as you’d probably be closer to the truth. Stop using COVID as an excuse for something that happened half a year ago.

This was my go to app, but for months now it doesn't show you real-time information and has a warning that it was because the transit network was hacked. Surely it must be over now. Other apps don't have this issue

For some reason this app keeps saying it in not updated. Annoying!

Recently has been showing an error when tracking the buses. Please get it fixed ASAP Thanks

I really love this app, it tells the time the bus comes exactly and where it is at the moment. But ever since the whole cyber attack with the trans link, the timings have been so hard. I really hope this will get fixed as I honestly use this app everyday. Will gladly change my review once it’s fixed. I hope this is read please and thank you.

Absolute best app I’ve ever had, I’m a bus nerd, and I spend about 6 hours a day on radar. The best app ever and it’s so cool!! 100% recommend

It’s fantastic. I’ve been using it for years and it has NEVER failed me. It’s accurate. Shows delayed and cancelled buses. Stops are clearly labeled. Easy to use and easy to read. Seriously the best app I’ve downloaded onto my phone. Ever. Thank you for making this thing!

Thank you for putting together this app. I have been using this for YEARS without fail. It lets me track in real time where the buses on my route are . At the same time, I can see what options I have available at a given time at a give stop. Awesome app! Should be more readily available across Canada !
