Very Helpful

MyBusLawrence has been extremely helpful and it helps me get an idea for where my bus will be when. However it used to be that it would save my preferences when it came to bus routes but now it resets to every bus route popping up when I reopen MyBusLawrence . I only need a few them not all of them 🤣 also trying to figure out the reminders was confusing but I can work through this. Maybe a little guide would help for how to best use MyBusLawrence.

Some routes not updating

Route 36 has not updated in three weeks; pretty much since the first day of school. One bus shows it is not even running, the other shows its running on the route but hasn't been updated so I have no idea when it will be where I am. I tried to submit a report on MyBusLawrence itself, the problem has not been fixed and I have not received any reply from the developer about the issue. App is no longer worth the space on my phone. Had this issue intermittently last year and let it slide, but MyBusLawrence has become a waste of time.

Just when you think it won’t get worse

What the heck made you guys think any bus-taker cares about where EVERY SINGLE BUS is in Lawrence? Why can’t I select the bus I’m taking and just see where is my next bus? Right now I have to go to setting and uncheck all other buses and when I need to take a different bus I need to go into setting and check/uncheck every time.

MyBusLawrence is a prime example of when someone who doesn’t take bus and has never taken bus is asked to design an app for bus taker. “Just make the interface look good. Screw the users.” It’s no more than a good-looking useless waste of storage on my phone.

After Update, Great!

I’ve been using MyBusLawrence for over two years now and ever since the new update, improvements to the bus tracking, customization, and preferences, made MyBusLawrence more efficient to use and more of a necessity to have if you live here.

Off Campus opinion

If you are off of campus MyBusLawrence is straight up garbage. You are better off just standing at your stop an hour before you need to be anywhere. Times always inaccurate, shows bus times of busses that never actually come. If I had a dollar for everytime I missed a class because of MyBusLawrence I would have enough to buy MyBusLawrence and make it work. Couldn’t be more disappointed in a system that has potential to be so helpful.


By


Update?!?

It was great before this most recent update. Why did the update get rid of estimated bus arrivals in real-time? That seemed to be quite accurate. Now the estimations are wildly inaccurate and have lost the convenience of the real-time changes. It’s slightly more manageable after switching off the bus routes that I do not use on the map. The bus tracking is great and reliable, but the time estimations are not. The update has made MyBusLawrence incredibly MORE INCONVENIENT to use, and I hope it is fixed soon.

I’m very confused

MyBusLawrence is very useful and resourceful in Lawrence but where are all the bus routes? There are no explanations so far about why there are none of the buses there were before


By


Mediocre at best.

MyBusLawrence is a glitchy. Buses are rarely on time or arriving when it says they should be getting to a stop. Real-time tracking doesn’t work at all. And to top it off, I’ve told it multiple times I don’t want notifications. Yet every time I open it it asks again. I didn’t want them the first time, and I don’t want them now! All in all app is only marginally useful.


By


Update is bad

Idk what happened when they updated it but it used to be a lot more easy to use and you could track specific busses a lot easier. Now the map is difficult and buses are only linked to their route so you can only track the route not a specific bus. The version last semester had a lot of better functions as well


By


Excellent

No minutes of arrival shown, but even better since it shows your bus as a little arrow moving along its route so you can actually see how close it is getting to your stop in real time.


By


Almost entirely useless

Bus times are completely inaccurate and not even worth looking at, MyBusLawrence won’t update the locations of busses on their route consistently, and the notifications of busses arriving don’t work at all. I’ve tried everything and I’ve still never received a single notification despite countless attempts to turn them on.


By


Times wildly off

I keep missing buses because your app shows them coming at a certain time, and then pushing them up at least 45 minutes early. Buses have also been tracking incorrectly so it shows them being 15 minutes away when they’re right around the corner. Please fix this somehow


By


It fine before the latest update. Now it’s terrible.

You use to be able to tell which way the stops went and expected time frames. Now you can’t even tell when the routes go. Update was a waste of time and now it’s not helpful at all. Hope they fix it soon.


By


Beneficial

Great for daytime use but doesn't work with the Safebus routes or route 44. Really helpful though.


By


Make a vow

You have to make a vow that “I solemnly swear that I am up to no good”, then you can use MyBusLawrence .


By


Unreliable

One would be better off using the paper schedule than MyBusLawrence. Consistently doesn’t track buses and merely displays the scheduled times. Would be wonderful if it worked.


By


Update looks nice but doesn't perform well

Screen repeatedly freezes/become unresponsive and then crashes.


By


irritating

used to be fine but now everytime i open MyBusLawrence all of the routes are selected making the map look hectic. the arrival times are irritating as well— seeing that my bus was supposed to arrive in 10 minutes arrive in 2 making me miss it.


By


Laggy

It works most the time but it lags a lot all the time so I miss my busses


By


Why?

Why is it so bad? It’s not like this is a hard concept yet it’s constantly very wrong and hard to use. Just use transit it’s way better.
