Extremely inconsistent

TransLocRider rarely ever works correctly. It will sometimes say that a bus is 10 minutes away while using WiFi but when u get to the bus stop and use data, TransLocRider says the bus will arrive in 40 minutes!! I’ve used TransLocRider for about 5 years now and it has been inconsistent all the t... Show more

HORRIBLE

TransLocRider is horrible. I hate to leave a bad review because it is a good thing you’re trying to do with it but TransLocRider is so ridiculously inaccurate I don’t know what to say. One minute the bus is 3 minutes away, the next it’s 38. One minute the bus is 40 mins away, the next it’s 4 minu... Show more

Good in concept poor in execution

5 minutes away for a bus either means 15 minutes away or the bus passed 5 minutes ago. The timing estimations are atrocious and for an app that's supposed to make getting from place to place in a timely fashion easier that flaw must be fixed immediately. The only thing TransLocRider is good for is... Show more

Can be occasionally inaccurate

I’ve used TransLocRider for the better part of a year now in the Tallahassee area as an FSU student, and TransLocRider gives and takes. I’m not sure if it’s because of our buses themselves or TransLocRider , but a lot of times the system says the location is “Not Available” even when the Star Met... Show more

marie

I used TransLocRider as an FSU student and since the buses were my only choice for transportation I relied on it heavily. It works some times but its very glitchy, sometimes saying a bus that was 5 minutes away is now suddenly gone and the next one isn't for another 20 minutes. Then I look out my ... Show more

Almost perfect

TransLocRider is great. Very helpful. Makes using transit very easy and effective. The only issue I have is that the only options for location determination are "always" or "never." It would be better if it were possible to turn off the location features as soon as TransLocRider was closed, rath... Show more

Pretty great app with minor flaws.

TransLocRider tracks the buses in my city in real time and always allows me to leave my apartment exactly when I need to to catch the bus without standing in the cold for 25 minutes. Occasionally the buses will get frozen or report not expecting to arrive for 30 minutes and then just randomly pop ... Show more

One small problem

TransLocRider works great and I use it to get to class every day! Although there is one problem I have with it. In my location services there are only the options for Rider to use my location "always" or "never". Having location services on 100% of the time drains my battery and is unnecessary, bu...

Just Add Lag Time

Generally an effective app. I assume the bus is closer than the marker appears, which cuts down on me watching the bus go by. There are ghost buses (no transponder), so I still have to use the published schedule. This is a great app for delays, I can see all the piled up buses. The time to arrival ... Show more

Best app for public transpo but sometimes off

Sometimes when I hit notify me when 5 min away it won’t , but I know the bus times near me so I knew it was coming idk if it was bc the route just started or bc the bus driver takes a break and u can see the bus sitting there idle then boom u look again and it’s almost at ur stop [ I live near a ma...

Great Start Could Be Better

I downloaded TransLocRider after my son and I became daily commuters to the Bus. I drop him off at daycare in the mornings and pick him up and also ride throughout the day to job search.. Some of the bus lines are off or if you aren’t standing at a particular bus stop it won’t tell you that it’s c... Show more

About time

Thank you for accurate transit tracking that we have waited decades for. Good direction. Few improvements would be jumping to closest stop is not always correct and some buses that are clearly off schedule but show as on time. Not sure if the eta is based on schedule or bus tracking or both. A few ... Show more

Most necessary app

I used TransLocRider several years ago and it worked just okay, however I recently started using it again and the updates to TransLocRider have made it perfect! The estimated times are pretty accurate and you can wait inside somewhere close knowing that TransLocRider will tell you when your bus ... Show more

Fantastic app

Have been using for about 2 years. I really like TransLocRider so far. The feature I like the most is the notifications when your bus is arriving even though is beta still. Sometimes the buses live location don’t update but for the most part accurate.

Accurate and handy

Using this along with my uni’s bus app. Gives real-time updates, showing routes and buses on a handy map. Rather than just knowing how many minutes a way a bus is, one can see where exactly the bus is and where its going. Anyone can see inaccuracies are not on TransLocRider ’s end.

Features

This app leverages an Apple service called the "significant location change service", which runs in the background and collects data only when your device has traveled 500 meters and five minutes have passed.

TransLoc Rider provides real-time transit tracking, arrival predictions and proximity alerts.

• New multi-modal trip plan update incorporates stop, route and schedule information when passengers use multiple modes of transportation (e.g. Uber and mass transit).

The benefit to transit riders is assisting transit agencies in positioning routes and stops as well as dispatching vehicles with optimal frequency.

If you’ve ever stood in the rain wondering where your bus or train is, TransLoc Rider is the app for you.
