Possibly the worst app I have ever had the displeasure of using. I want to be able to rate this app 0 stars so don't think the 1 star was earned. Save yourself time and throw a dart at a clock to decide when to leave for your bus. Always wrong, tracker doesn't work, multiple bugs and the "plan your trip" feature counts on you being able to cover distances faster than Usain Bolt to make connecting buses, even before the first bus in your journey is 15 minutes late and you miss it anyway. Avoid.

For what it is, the app does the job. I normally use it for quick timetable check for my favourite stops. It does feature a live bus tracking, which more apps should use it. Although am dropping three stars, thanks to inconsistent UI. When am checking for trip details, the map minimises with the trip list stretching almost fully. Normally fixed after rotating the device, but still annoying.

Sadly the Plan a Trip feature is still very unreliable. Can't tell how many buses I've missed or the amount of times where I had to wait a long time for the bus because the feature told me the wrong time. Please fix this because people need to be able to rely on it. I've read a couple of reviews and all say the same.

Times displayed for the buses have nothing to do with reality. Just put an asterisk next to the time the bus needs to arrive and time becomes relevant. 4 minutes wait on app, 25 in real life. What's the point of having an app then?

Edited review. You've fixed the search which is working great now!L, thanks! However when you search for a journey the map is squashed to the top of the page and I can't see it properly. Can you fix it please?

Timetable is completely unreliable - had to get a taxi in the end. There was another app made by a third party developer which was much better but sadly it's no longer compatible with Android.

About this app

The travel app from Lothian has everything you need to get around Edinburgh with Lothian Buses and Edinburgh Trams.

INSTANT DEPARTURES
Open up the app and we'll show you live times for the three nearest stops near you
An interactive map shows you every bus and tram stop around you - just tap on one to bring up an instant departure board - perfect for comparing services at different stops.

SMART SEARCH
Want to get somewhere fast? Just search for a place, address, business name... anything, and we'll show you the best way to get there. You can also search for routes - we'll even show you if a bus is nearby and show you it moving on a map.

SATNAV FOR BUS & TRAM
Plan your commute, nights out or even just a trip to the shops - we use a real-time journey planning system that takes network delays into account when showing you the best way to get to your destination, with full step-by-step instructions.

SHARE YOUR JOURNEY
We've made it easy to let your friends and family know when you'll arrive - just track your bus using the app and share a link by email, Twitter, Facebook or WhatsApp. Your friends can track your bus online (they don't need the app) and see when you'll arrive.

M-TICKETS
Using the companion m-ticket app, you can purchase single tickets and DAYtickets for many of our services.

Finally, please note that the app requires data access and works best with GPS on. Please be aware the continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
