About TRACKR: Next Bus & Train Times

The goal is simple: bus and train times in two taps or less!

There's plenty of travel apps out there: journey planners, bus times, train times... some of them just work in certain cities, some of them are just plain hard to use. We couldn't find one that suited us, so we went ahead and made one - a tracker app designed by commuters, for commuters.

We've added all the little conveniences we wanted as commuters:

► Live National Rail departure boards (with a twist or two):
- See all the stations the train will call at right there in the departure board
- Start typing - we'll find your destination among all the upcoming trains and show you which ones match
- Predictive platform numbers - find out where the train will arrive before anyone else (hello Euston station!)

► Dedicated departure boards for all Underground, tram and light rail services in the country:
- London Underground, Docklands Light Railway, London Tramlink, Glasgow SPT Subway, Edinburgh Trams, Tyne & Wear Metro, Sheffield Supertram, Blackpool Trams, Manchester Metrolink, Midland Metro and Nottingham Express
- Colour coded for each line and split into directions so you can quickly find your train

► Of course, we also show all 370,000 bus stops in the UK
- Colour coded by operator (First, Stagecoach, Go-Ahead, Arriva, TFL, National Express and all the local operators)
- Live departure times where available (most cities and large towns have these)

Finally, watch your live progress - just tap on a departure (train, bus, subway, metro) and see your route on a map and when you can expect to arrive at a particular stop or station.

... actually, that's not it, there's lots more!

► Search for places, streets, stops and stations throughout the UK
► Save your favourite stops and stations
► Set proximity alarms - the phone will let you know when you're approaching your stop
► Nice fresh Material Design throughout

...and...

► JOURNEY PLANNING! For the whole of the UK - pick any two places, and we'll show you how to get there by public transport. Plus, filter journeys by transit mode (train, bus, light rail etc.) and save journeys for quick access later on.

We've designed this app to be the ultimate commuters' companion in the UK. And we're not finished - there's still a lot we want to do. However we need your help - we want your feedback. If you have any suggestions, email us at feedback@busexpert.co.uk

Happy commuting, Britain!

What are users saying about TRACKR: Next Bus & Train Times

S70%
by S####:

This app does not work. Plan a trip gives the message "Sorry we couldn't find any journeys that match." Bus and train information is also unavailable "We can't find any upcoming departures." Developer website is unobtainable and no answer to email enquiries. Buyer beware. Not "fixed" at all same issues remain. The app DOES NOT WORK.. Website now up but appears to be only for ios apps probably indicative of the attitude to android customers. Seems that as ios 7 is the latest mentioned this app may be dead on all platforms. Asked for a refund but no reply to email.

I downloaded the free version worked ok then wouldn't show any departures so thinking it may be a limited time decidex to buy full version and still not working want a refund!

A70%
by A####:

Would be good if you could change the map view mode (satellite, terrain etc.) and allowed users to enter a description of their saved bus stops where they could potentially enter the price of bus tickets etc.

S70%
by S####:

This is excellent when it's working. Unfortunately that's not very often, it currently says 1.33 for every bus

O70%
by O####:

Used to work well then stopped working but after leaving a message the Dev responded quickly. Still a bit hit and miss as to whether it finds the station (e.g. Kings Cross). Still time to look elsewhere.

S70%
by S####:

This is a most excellent app. I use it for my bus journeys whereby I can monitor where the bus I want to catch actually is. It has been very reliable in this role. I do miss having a refresh button on the bus route page so I don't have to keep going back and then reload again. However, I am confidant that this sort of functionality will be added in the future by the developers.

H70%
by H####:

It's just not reliable when I need it, and seems to stop working for periods of time. Shame, as I like the interface and map view...

V70%
by V####:

App now doesn't work at all; no bus stop locations, no updates on journey times and live bus updates for months. Completely pointless

O70%
by O####:

So having paid for the app, it seem like this app is no longer worked on. Last update September 15. I appreciate good apps and willing to pay, but it's a bit of a con to take money then ignore the app that had issues.

last days is not working is not the same that I bought, always say sorry for no found bus!!!

M70%

Have I wasted my money?..

Y70%
by Y####:

Google maps of far much better. It shows also a platform to board from. And it's accurate. Please you need to get this app perfect

S70%
by S####:

Not sure why there is a geofence service running when I haven't got any proximity alerts set.

L70%
by L####:

The bus I am on stopped existing half way though the journey so lost my tracking progress which is bad when you are learning the route.
