## Description

**Transit Tracker - Cache Valley** is a handy Chrome extension designed for riders using the Cache Valley Transit District (CVTD) services. It provides real-time tracking of CVTD buses using publicly available APIs, enabling users to monitor bus locations on multiple routes or specific bus numbers.

Key features include downloading route schedules as tables or maps, viewing next bus arrival times at stops, searching nearby stops based on location or address, and setting customizable alerts for bus arrivals based on distance. The extension offers light and dark themes, satellite imagery and traffic overlays, adjustable vehicle location update intervals, and personalized alert ringtones. Note that this is an unofficial app and alerts depend on buses following their defined routes, so detours might affect notifications.

Whether you're a daily commuter or occasional rider, Transit Tracker simplifies accessing CVTD transit information right from your browser.

## Review summary

Users appreciate that the app shows bus stops and routes clearly and allows tracking of selected buses, providing helpful service especially for free rides. However, major issues include inaccurate bus location tracking, missing or incorrect route data, app instability, and excessive ads. These problems diminish its reliability, though many still prefer it over alternatives and look forward to improvements like ad removal and better data accuracy.

### Pros

- Helps users track buses and choose which buses to follow.
- Provides accurate and helpful information when functioning properly.
- User-friendly layout making it easy to see routes and stops.
- Free to use with an option to upgrade for an ad-free experience.

### Cons

- Bus location tracking is often inaccurate or shows wrong locations (e.g., buses off the coast of Ghana).
- The app frequently crashes or only works about half the time.
- Not all bus routes are included or correctly associated with buses (e.g., missing route #12).
- Too many ads that drain battery and can be annoying.
