Great in theory, not in application.

2022-05-22

In theory, Stopfinder is fantastic. It gives you a map that shows the location of the bus, and you can set multiple alerts so you can see where your kid is. When it comes to actually use, however, they have fall short. It almost never works, by which I mean it almost never sends alerts or shows the bus location. When it does work, it’s haphazard. Some alerts come through and some don’t, and sometimes you can see the bus and sometimes you can’t. I’m not even sure why I keep it installed on my phone. Sometimes I open it to try to see where my kids might be, but to no avail. Basically, it is totally unreliable, and I wish our school system would go back to using here comes the bus.

Awful

2022-06-23

Geofencing doesn’t work, bus on map doesn’t work, app crashes continuously and doesn’t recognize user when trying to log back in…if it will intact let the user log back in! Idea behind Stopfinder is great….but the execution is garbage.

Doesn’t Work!!

2022-07-24

Stopfinder is horrible! It hasn’t worked the last two days, and when it is working it is off by a couple minutes. I don’t know why my district chose Stopfinder to use.

Doesn’t work

2022-08-25

How a school could look at these reviews and choose to pay this company is beyond me. Stopfinder rarely works. And when it does it cannot be trusted because it only works 5% of the time.

Worse thing to exist

2022-09-26

It’s basically useless. It never shows you the location of the bus and it doesn’t even send an left until 10 minutes later.

Worthless!!!

2022-10-27

Completely useless, have had it for almost 2 months and only once has it shown where the bud is. Even with that it was delayed by over 5 mins. Not worth the hassle.

Doesn’t work

2022-11-28

Our school district just started using this in August 2021. Even with alerts setup and the radius expanded, it’s not alerting parents to radius proximity as advertised. We are not receiving push notifications…very unhappy parents. Hoping our district finds a new app.

This app does not work properly

2022-12-29

I’m so disappointed in Stopfinder. The user interface is nice looking and seems like it would be relatively easy to use BUT IT DOESN'T WORK. I saw the bus icon once …ONE SINGLE TIME since I signed up to use it. I get NO ALERTS so I have no idea when the bus is coming. Right now it’s just an icon on my phone because it otherwise serves no purpose. I hope another developer gets wind of this and offers a new working app because it seems the developers for this one have no interest in making it work. Not a single update or fix to make the dastardly thing work. 😒

Our school wasted money on this?

2023-01-30

Cannot even log in. Entered the same password used during the activation but it’s still saying “password is required” and doesn’t allow to log in.

Inconsistent- works less often than it doesn’t

2023-03-03

Nice idea, crap app. Hardly ever works properly. I wish my district would bring back Stopfinder we used to use or that the developers could get the geoalerts to function properly.

Does Not Work

2023-04-01

Is this application some sort of scam paid for by the school system? It does not work. Other applications do work. Contact your school system and let them know to cancel their contract with this company!

Not helpful in finding out where the bus is

2023-05-03

Doesn’t provide much information other than the bus route and the stop location. I liked the where’s the bus app better because it would tell you how far the bus was from your stop.

Never accurate

2023-06-03

I try to use this daily, but it is never accurate enough to even be useful. We would like it to be accurate enough to use so that my kids are not waiting in the cold for the bus for too long. I know the bigger issue is the bus time ranges 20-45 minutes late, but not sure if we would win that battle.

Total Junk

2023-07-05

I have no Idea why our school insists we try to use this. The GPS never works, and it is not user-friendly. You set up Geo alerts and they don’t work half the time. It’s complete junk. You certainly don’t want to depend on this to see where your child’s bus is at.

Pointless

2023-08-05

If you like looking at a blank white screen for 5 minutes, Stopfinder is for you. Otherwise, all it’s good for (when it actually loads) is just showing your child’s pickup and drop off times. Claims of it tracking the actual bus is so far nothing but false advertising. Hope our district isn’t actually paying for this.

Does not work

2023-09-06

The only parts that do work are the bus information & creating the zone on the map. Other than that, it’s pointless. The bus location is never available, there’s no way to reach out for help through Stopfinder other than to watch “how to” clips, & it’s just a waste of space, to be honest. If the geolocation worked, that would be great, considering that’s the whole point of the thing. Please fix this.

This app is trash!!!

2023-10-08

Stopfinder never works. Don’t even waste the space on your phone. There is no way to know the location of your kid’s bus, and more importantly, your kid. I am stunned that the Prince George’s County Maryland Public School System uses it. The county and the developer should be ashamed. Complain to your county’s school transportation system and demand a change!

Could be a great app if it worked

2023-11-08

This could be a really great app…
if it worked.
Most of the time the map page doesn’t load. If the map loads, then the bus location doesn’t load.
I’ve tried to use the notification but it never works.

Delayed

2023-12-10

My boys have missed the bus many times because the bus is not accurately tracked and shows a delay. Some days it doesn’t even show where the bus is and the geoalert doesn’t work if the bus isn’t being tracked. Wish our district would go back to Here Comes The Bus.

Great App!

2024-01-10

Makes life easier in a crazy year! If your schools haven’t yet, ask them to get the gps alert feature to let you know when the bus pulls on your street.

Worthless.

2024-12-16

App is worthless. The alerts do not work, the tracking is delayed by several minutes… and that’s if it even picks up the bus signal at all.

Needs more

2024-12-16

Wish Stopfinder included gps so we can track exactly where the bus is. The schedule doesn’t help when the bus driver is constantly 10-15 minutes late all the time.

No place to create a log in

2024-12-16

Only lost password link and no response from customer service

Schedule Stopped loading

2024-12-16

I updated to the newest iOS and now the bus schedules no longer load. Please update your app.

24 hours? Obviously you don’t have kids !

2024-12-16

Thanks for letting me know that you have Stopfinder to help me and then letting me know I can use it!

Login

2024-12-16

I never got the option to register to get a login!!!!!!

It’s fantastic

2024-12-16

Very useful to controller my children’s school planning. It’s fantastic. Thanks so much for the developers! 🌚🌝
