Features & Capabilities

Ride On Trip Planner is a transit-focused Chrome extension built in collaboration with Moovit and Montgomery County's MCDOT. It provides real-time bus arrivals, multimodal trip planning (bus, bikeshare, scooters), and a crowdedness indicator to help riders decide when to board or wait for the next vehicle.

The extension emphasizes accessibility, offering features for users with visual or mobility impairments. It also includes dashboards for central dispatch to monitor loads and optimize service. This federal-funded pilot tests enhanced transit options and safety to improve local travel in the community.

User Reviews

The app is praised for live-time tracking and planning features, with some users noting improvements after updates. However, recurring problems include inaccurate arrival times, buses not appearing or trackable when GPS is off, and reliability issues during weekends or detours, which diminish overall usefulness for many riders.

Pros

Live real-time bus status and tracking.
Strong route planning: easy to compare routes, total travel time, and departure times.
Helpful notifications/reminders.
Recent app updates have improved arrival accuracy for some users.

Cons

Inaccurate or inconsistent arrival times and predictions (times jump, late/early, wrong direction).
GPS dependency leads to uselessness when GPS is off and some buses do not appear in the app.
Reliability issues due to detours and weekend service not reflecting real conditions.

Recent reviews

This app is useless. Better off just screenshotting the bus schedule you need because this app never shows real-time delays or live location. It is literally useless. I will be waiting for my bus and the app will say the bus is at the stop *now* but then the bus doesn’t even show up for 10 more minutes. Ridiculous.

Real time, well organized, fast, good graphics, useful notifications. I’m super impressed. Nice one.

This has to be the most convoluted app I’ve ever encountered. I have just resulted to relying on the Apple maps on my phone to get to bus routes to find out what time the bus comes. This map can’t even find major landmarks like a library. it says it can’t be found on the maps and then I have to go in manually search it on the map and I see the bus route and I can click on the bus stop, but it won’t tell me the number of the Bus.
