Overall, NaviGator is viewed as a must-have Gainesville transit tool.

Shoutout my goat Jonathan

I’m a UF student who has struggled using the normal RTS bus app for the UF campus and surrounding area. I’m thankful I found this app after reading the local paper the alligator. 5/5 stars, only complaint is that I had to type in NaviGator then specify RTS to find it in the App Store. The Seo could be improved a bit but I’m sure that it’s difficult.
