## Review summary

Users find the app useful for London bus times, stops, and planning, even on Apple Watch, and appreciate that it's free. However, intrusive ads disrupt usage and can block critical information, and the app sometimes struggles with route planning, departures, and occasional crashes.

### Pros

- Easy to use, clear interface, and helpful for planning trips.
- Provides bus times, stops/locations, and shows multiple route options.
- Very useful on the go, with Apple Watch integration for planning ahead.
- Free to use and widely useful for London bus information.

### Cons

- Intrusive ads disrupt usage—pop-ups, full-screen games, and ads blocking the screen.
- Reliability issues: route planning sometimes fails to find options/departures and the app crashes.
