Pretty Useless. Maps wrong, incomplete, and overlapping routes difficult to see - paper map much more accurate. "Rate Us" hangs app. Not helpful with tour extras. "Where Is My Bus" only tells you frequency of busses in route - not actual time til next bus. Had to manuaaly enable location services to find location on map - app doesn't ask. Map doesnt have any real information on city sights. No route filter.

The app doesn't work at all, keeps showing no wifi symbol, so pretty much useless. The bus frequency seems extremely low for a hop-on hop-off tour, better choose someone else.

Would give 0 stars if I could. App won't start up, it either says "Failed to initialize Vuforia" (no idea what that means) or just gets stuck showing the spinning icon. 0/10.

Doesn't work well and wants access to my photos and to take photos... not sure why. Also doesn't provide updates on where buses are e.t.c big Bus app is much better

Links to website for 90% of info, 74mb download for photos of locations to visit. No live bus information. Paper guide is more useful.

Won't install properly. Says internal error. Is this because I denied the app to take photos and record video?? Shame because I would like to use it.
