User Reviews

Users largely find the National Express Coach app convenient and helpful for finding schedules and planning trips, and many report it’s easy to use and useful for first-time UK travelers. However, recurring problems undermine the experience: tickets and bookings aren’t saved or easily accessible; calendars show wrong dates; the app crashes or times out; timetable updates and changes aren’t reflected; the coach tracker often fails. Some users still have positive experiences when the app works. Reliability and data syncing need significant fixes to deliver a consistently smooth booking and travel-planning tool.
Pros
  • Easy to use, convenient, and user-friendly.
  • Schedules and route information are accessible and helpful for planning (especially for first-time UK visitors).
  • Helps save time and money on travel and planning.
  • Generally reliable and functional when it works.
Cons
  • Tickets and bookings aren’t saved or linked to the account; users must re-enter confirmation numbers and login repeatedly.
  • Calendar and date handling is incorrect, showing wrong months/dates and causing incorrect bookings.
  • App crashes frequently and sessions expire, leading to reliability issues.
  • Timetable updates and changes aren’t reflected in the app (e.g., transfer points or schedule changes).
  • Coach Tracker is unreliable or non-functional.

While I appreciate the app for finding the bus I’d like to take, I am shocked that tickets purchased thru the app don’t automatically appear under “tickets”. One needs to retrieve the ticket number sent via email and enter it into the app. That’s just backwards. Also, when looking for the app in settings, who on earth would look under C for the Nationall Express app. I now know it’s the coach app, but it’s far from intuitive.

The National Express Coach app is an invaluable tool in terms of time and money saving — especially for first-time visitors to the UK. Accurate and comprehensive information is needed to plan efficiently, and this app meets those needs. I can’t wait to come back for future explorations and adventures!

The app doesn’t update itineraries or timetables when National Express makes changes. My journey from Brighton to Nottingham involved a transfer at London Victoria. But at some point, NE changed the transfer point to Gatwick. The app never reflected this and I never got the email. Also, the “Coach Tracker” feature hardly works at all. Ride with Flixbus or Megabus!
