Features & Capabilities

SG NextBus is a lightweight Chrome extension that gives you quick access to bus arrival times for Singapore's most frequented routes. It displays the estimated arrival for the next three buses and continues to push arrival time alerts via rich content notifications even after you close the app.

The extension also offers convenient features such as a lock-screen experience, a Today Widget showing nearby saved buses, and an Apple Watch companion app. You can view bus capacity information, including seats and standing space, and organize routes into groups. Data is sourced from the Land Transport Authority of Singapore (LTA).

User Reviews

Users generally praise SG NextBus for its clean UI, useful widget, and reliable timing for daily use, plus strong Apple Watch integration and ease of use. However, recurring issues include inaccurate arrival times and missing routes, data sync problems (iCloud/bookmarks erasing), slow/buggy performance, unintuitive UX (auto nearest-stop and panel management), and widget/notification failures after updates. These pain points appear across multiple reviews, indicating core reliability and UX improvements are needed alongside feature polish.

I've missed a few buses now as a result of this apps inaccuracies. Either the buses don't arrive at all, or the estimated time is way off. This app is a waste of time - don't bother.

Selecting a bus stop is annoying with the app as it automatically shows the nearest bus stop, which is not necessarily the bus stop the user is looking for.
