This app is a lifesaver! I'm thankful this app exists and works so well. But the ads... the pop-up ads.... the video ads that take 10 seconds to skip... they're unacceptable. If I need to show my screen/ticket to the bus driver, I'm wasting everyone's time trying to get out of the ad!! I've had my finger off the screen and multiple times now the ad has clicked itself and opened a webpage! I've been out of the app and it's opened the same ad's web page! Definitely looking for alternatives.
Reviews for Moovit: Your Transit Tracker
I hate leaving reviews, but it needs to be said. The level of ads I get are ridiculous, even for a free app. Some ads have a tendency to force install THEIR OWN app, which is super annoying an even shady. It does what it says, so install it if you need it for that...just expect ads! Lots and lots of ads (and some that force install)!
Unusable! With everything you have to agree to in order to even use the app it's clearly for harvesting your data and selling ad space. The map doesn't fully show, it's slow to load, it doesn't recognise complete/correct addresses. I hardly ever go out of my way to leave a bad review, but this is really just a useless app. Don't bother!
I keep getting the error message that planning a journey between regions is not supported. I'm selecting 2 locations in a major American city that are about a mile apart. How close to locations have to be to be supported by this app???? It's not very useful if it only supports locations less than a mile apart! (And it's not user error. I tried entering address, tried id-ing on the map, checked and rechecked the addresses.... same error message.) Useless.
The app is alright but needs work. When people want to catch a bus or a train they want fast access to a schedule for at least the next 3 busses or train leaving. I had trouble finding fast access. The UI also needs work. Please, remember that there are a lot of "Baby boomers" without the tech know how. I'm sure your app is helping lots of people all over the world because it's a good app but fast access to where you want to go and easy maneuvering would make this app even better. Thank you guys
Unreliable information. Shows non existing rout Of bus lines. Cost me more than once an entire day's schedule. Poor information quality. They don't cross reference or verify information. Wouldn't trust them with my credit Information. *edit As it happens to be, I did have to give them my credit info since I was looking for a carpool. Of course it didn't go through (unreliable) and no payment was made. Now they make it a hassle to remove my credit card. Only use it for lack of better choice
I get that this app is ad-supported, but the ads make the app unusable. Ads take up half the screen and if you go anywhere near them, a webpage opens up. And when you need to use the app quickly, Fullscreen ads for video games open up and you can't skip them for a long time. I just missed my bus because I couldn't wade through the ads quickly enough. There is a paid version, but until I see the app actually succeed at something, I'm not signing up for a subscription.
Difficult-to-use app with lots of very invasive ads. I downloaded it because a Google search for a bus route in Costa Rica came up with a page on their website which wouldn't show me enough information without installing the app. But when I installed the app, none of the links from the website worked, and it took me a long time (and lots of ads) to figure out where the information was in the app. In fact I still can't find what I really wanted.
I've been using this app for literal years and I still think it's amazing, but the amount of ads now is insane. I'm fine with banner ads, and maybe a full screen ad after you've gotten to where you need to go, but full screen ads whenever you do anything?? That's just too much. I was even hoping there was a fee I could pay to get rid of the ads like in most apps, but that doesn't even exist. This is the best public transportation app I've used, please let me use it.
Great app. Terrible SUBSCRIPTION plan options! I would gladly pay a reasonable set price for this. I don't know why everyone is getting on the subscription model! It must be a great way to guarantee a steady flow of income... I'm not into that. Edit 3/15/23: Again, issue is not with app remain free, issue is with METHOD of payment. If you provide a set reasonable price to purchase the app, I would gladly buy it. I just don't like that a lot of apps are forcing people into another subscription.
