Zero stars! Absolutely useless! Gives the timetable, shows the map but you can't proceed to see either a ticket price or let alone a return ticket option! I will just uninstall and call since translink website is pathetic too! They want people to use buses etc and impossible to blooming book a ticket! Get a grip translink!
