When it works it's fine, but sometimes it doesn't, I just know the bus is moving because the screen will flash. More often than not, I have to log out and re-enter my password, but even that is not resolving the issue anymore. The last 03 days it is still telling me I can't see visibility because the school drop off is complete, however, that's from 03 days ago. *The app still doesn't update properly. Still showing the end of a sub route from a week ago.

We have been using this app for 4yrs now. The first 3yrs, great. But this year, no matter what we do, the map NEVER works. This year, not once have we been able to TRACK the bus. Which is the ENTIRE point of having this! It's not showing or telling us when the bus enters or leaves radius. Not showing our stop AT ALL. Never a green or red symbol. And NOT getting PUSH NOTIFICATIONS. I have done everything down to deleting myself & starting over. PLEASE fix whatever went wrong this year!

Good concept. Bad execution. 60% of the time app dosent work. Either they switched the bus, or didn't activate the app. Randomly signs you out and then won't let you log in. Re-submit your email dosent work for litteral DAYS. Edit- Have now been signed out for roughly a month. Constant requests for a password change or anything and have not received ANY help so far. Would not even bother at this point
