Features & Capabilities

UMass BusTrack is a convenient app designed for University of Massachusetts Amherst students and visitors to easily catch PVTA buses. It offers a complete offline PVTA bus schedule, allowing users to access bus times without an internet connection. The app's standout feature is real-time bus tracking (currently in beta), enabling users to see where buses are on their routes.

Additional features include viewing all nearby bus stops, getting schedules for any stop, searching and saving favorite stops, and seeing the next arriving bus with estimated times. While the data is provided by PVTA, the app itself is unofficial and free to use. Note that continuous GPS use may impact battery life, and the app is optimized for devices like the Samsung Galaxy S3. Privacy and terms are outlined on their website, and users can join the beta tester group to help improve the app.

User Reviews

Users report that UMass BusTrack provides basic bus times and some real-time tracking, filling a needed niche. However, major issues include frequent crashing, inaccurate or incomplete schedule data, and missing key features for planning and usability. Battery drain due to background activity and a poor user interface further diminish the app's effectiveness. Despite its potential, users desire improved stability, accuracy, and functionality such as route planning and better schedule access.

Pros

Provides bus times and route information.
Includes real-time bus location tracking (though accuracy is questionable).
Potential for useful features not present yet, like route planning between start and end points.
Fills a gap where no official Android app exists for PVTA buses.

Cons

App frequently crashes, especially after updates or on launch.
Does not consistently show accurate or complete bus times and schedules.
Lacks comprehensive scheduling features, such as access to official PDF schedules and planning for holidays or school breaks.
Consumes excessive battery by running in the background without sleep mode.
User interface is poor and lacks important features like destination route planning and labeled buildings in maps.
