User Reviews

The app is valued for live departure times and overall usefulness, but users repeatedly report major reliability issues: the journey planner is frequently buggy, QR scanning can be unusable, location/search fails to load, the app crashes or freezes, and there are occasional data loss/save problems. These top pain points should be addressed to improve daily usability.

Pros

Live departure times and real-time updates help reduce guesswork when planning trips
Overall usefulness for daily transit planning
Efficient route search compared with the website

Cons

Journey planner frequently fails or is unreliable
QR scanner unreliable; camera won't open or is blocked by other apps
Location search/selection fails to load or input is rejected
App stability issues such as freezes, crashes, or not opening
Account data loss and trouble saving trips

Recent reviews

Mostly does as it should, except when entering the destination in Journey Planner it deletes the first letter you type, for example if you type "Perth Station" it only records "erth Station" and brings up no results for your search. Also, if you close the app and reopen it goes back to the main screen, which is really annoying if you have something open in the app (eg a journey plan) and need to use something else on your phone for a moment.

The app has some nice features allowing you to see live bus locations, save bus and train stops etc. I can't understand why they can't incorporate the multi Rider card with this app so you can tag on & off if you happen to forget your card or lose it. Mine was stolen with my wallet. There are very few places where you can acquire the Transperth multi Rider card. Apparently certain newsagents have them but then they have to add your concession card onto the device. Typical Perth!
