User Reviews

Users praise generally accurate GPS tracking, reliable notifications, and easy multi-child monitoring. However, the latest update degraded map visibility and caused laggy location updates, making notifications inconsistent and the app unstable. Many want the old bus visibility back and improved reliability for tracking multiple kids.

Pros

Generally accurate GPS tracking and low lag in updates.
Easily monitor multiple children and quickly switch between profiles.
Notifications keep parents informed about bus status and driver changes.
Updated design with nicer icons and easier navigation between kids.
Overall life-saver for tracking school bus status and timing.

Cons

The latest update reduced bus visibility on the map; the bus icon is often missing or replaced by an arrow and not visible until very close.
Location updates are slow or laggy after the GUI update.
Notifications are inconsistent or sometimes missing, which can lead to missed buses.
Widespread glitches/bugs introduced by the update, causing instability.
Auto-zoom feature sometimes does not work as advertised.
