User Reviews

Metro Flex is a cost-effective and convenient transit option with friendly drivers and accessibility benefits, but its value is reduced by long and unpredictable waits, an unreliable app with inaccurate ETAs, poor pickup coordination, limited geographic coverage, and disruptions from high student usage.
Pros
  • Saves money on travel; cost-effective transportation.
  • Convenient for reaching places buses can’t go.
  • Friendly, courteous drivers who provide good service.
  • Accessibility benefits for users with disabilities or mobility issues.
Cons
  • Long, unpredictable wait times and driver availability causing delays.
  • Glitchy, slow app with inaccurate ETAs and loading issues.
  • Poor driver coordination and communication; difficulty contacting drivers and unclear pickup locations.
  • Limited service area; need expansion to nearby cities (Bellevue, Burien, Kent).
  • Student usage causing delays and scheduling challenges due to last-minute bookings.
Recent reviews
As a frequent and avid metro flex user, as well as a high school student with a job. Metro flex definitely helps with saving money when traveling places to place but the wait times are diabolical to what it used to be. Wait times went from 5-10 minutes to 30-40+ minutes through out the years which is very inconvenient and on top of the long wait, a lot of drivers end up picking up homeless or aggressive people, drive slow, and/or constantly not following gps or going to wrong drop off/pick up locations, which can be insufferable. Especially if you’re running late. If you’re in the Renton/downtown Renton area this happens more frequently than not.
