A life saver app in Korea. This app works for most cities in Korea, though not every single line is covered. You need to know the line no you are searching. It tells you where you are and when will the next bus coming. But all the content are in Korean, so you must know the Korean name of your bus stop and your destination. The timing is very accurate. I did not need to take any taxi while on my last trip to Jeonnam region: Gyeongju, Mokpo and Yeosu. Don't forget your T- Money too!

For my bus stops, the times are mostly very accurate. I go to a major bus stop, as well as one that has only one bus. The buses never arrive before the time indicted. They may arrive a little bit later, but that is due to unpredictable traffic. The times update as well, if there are any changes. Finding a bus stop in the map is easy. Finding it in the list of the bus route, though, is a bit confusing.

It consistently defaults to the opposite bus stop, even when I'm at my stop (i.e. I'm at the northbound platform but the app places me at the southboundone), which creates problems. It's also regularly about one minute behind the buses' actual schedules, which leads to additional delays.

As inconsistent and dysfunctional as any app from a company allowed a monopoly in a market. Bus times are inaccurate, arrivals could be 5 minutes + or -, and mapping doesn't always list the best/fastest bus route to get to destinations.

"No nearby stops" when there is clearly a lot of them around

동해시 bus system is really horrible. There are never any times and it usually says system check
