Pros and cons of GRT easyGO app for iPhone and iPad

GRT easyGO app good for

Very accurate app, bus arrival times are on the spot. Only downside is that it does not use your current location to calculate bus arrival times. Other than that, it is the best transit app for Grand River Transit
1. "Near me" needs to be user definable. I only get 3 of the 4 at my cross streets. I would prefer to say give me the # closest stops. Stops within # km would also work. 2. "Favourites" need categories. I dont care about the ones "from work" when Im "at home" or "shopping".
Really enjoy that the app is very accurate in time. Really would like to see a search button though like on the app doGRT it would make it convenient to save the stop without being anywhere near it. This would also prevent you from using the map to try and find the stop to save it (btw which was very difficult when looking for the actually terminal) Would really like to see that in the next update.
Nothing bad to say. The Real Time ETA feature is especially useful.
Latest update now shows the location of the bus on a map. Real time countdown is pretty accurate. Best app for GRT

Some bad moments

Love the concept, but the tap target for selecting favourite routes is too small. It takes 6 tries to hit the heart icon "just so" and not get route information instead.
Slow to display information and doesnt show delays of buses. Very user unfriendly.
The near me app never loads , amazing concept but lots of bugs to make it efficient
Way too many bugs and not super user friendly in my opinion (ex. no option to search for buses you want, difficult to navigate). Everything took a long time to load and the "near me" option was completely inaccurate. Overall, too frustrating to be worth it. DoGRT is significantly better.
Please fix. Wont show bus times, scheduling, when I tap on near me it tells me to try again later, and it keeps telling me that over and over. When I click on map it takes me to Waterloo when I live no where near it. And it used to work like a week ago. Please fix asap
Impossible to plan trips with - please revert back to google maps
