User Reviews

The reviews show a pattern of instability: the app frequently crashes or fails to load data, with roaming-data compatibility issues and sometimes inaccurate tram times. A minority report improvements after updates, with the app working well again when stable.
Pros
  • When it works, tram information loads quickly (e.g., using a local SIM).
  • Updates have fixed issues for some users, with reports of the app working well again.
  • Back up and running and generally usable after fixes for a subset of users.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and unresponsiveness on Android devices, including Galaxy S23 Ultra and S25 Ultra.
  • Repeated data-loading failures: 'unable to retrieve data' or data not loading for weeks.
  • Roaming data support is poor: the app doesn't work with roaming data and relies on a local SIM.
  • Arrival times are often inaccurate or misleading.
  • Disruption notices are unreliable or stop/start inconsistently.

very handy App

I can only agree with others. The tram timings are just rubbish. I have no idea how it can be so bad. Right now, it said the 96 is in 14, 20 and 20 mins. I waited a minute, refreshed the app and it then said now, 20 and 21. Rush to the stop, a one minute walk and now it says 4,20,21. How can that possibly be. Come on, you can do better.

Useless. Takes about 5 mins to open and then never actually loads any tram times.
