User Reviews

Some users praise BOS Next Bus for accurate arrivals and easy stop navigation, making it a handy daily MBTA tool. However, multiple reviews report persistent issues: the app often shows 'no nearby buses,' crashes or instability, and arrival times that can be unreliable. Overall sentiment is mixed—useful when working, but reliability problems erode trust.
Pros
  • Very accurate MBTA bus arrival times when the app is functioning
  • Easy to find bus stops and view next bus predictions
  • Useful for daily commuting and frequent MBTA users
Cons
  • Frequent 'no nearby buses' readings even for active routes
  • Crashes and stability issues (crashes on open, when selecting stops, or dropping pins)
  • Inaccurate or inconsistent arrival times across stops

Always says “no nearby buses”.

This app was decent at first. It worked for like a month and then one day I was leaving my college building to see what time my bus would be arriving and instead of the usual display of the buses and their arriving times, there was a display of “no nearby buses.” Quite annoying. I thought maybe it was my service, but it was simply just the app tweaking. I had to stand around outside for over twenty minutes, waiting, because I was nervous that I’d miss the upcoming buses. Hoping that the problem gets fixed before I delete the app.
