Save your dollar-- this app has no idea when a bus is coming. I guess the data source powering this thing is just an electronic version of the printed bus schedule which we all know isnt accurate. And -- we already have that info for free in google maps anyway! I waited at a bus stop last night and tested it - app claims that the bus would arrive in 28 minutes. In less than 7 minutes not one, but two busses came. This clearly has no fancy tracking feature built in.

MBTA Tracker tells MBTA riders how many minutes are left until the next bus comes. MBTA Tracker works with all bus stations and for all route directions in the MBTA system.
Stop names can be sorted alphabetically or according to distance from the users location. Alphabetical sorted stops have a tappable index for quick access and search functionality.
Additional features include walking directions to any selected bus stop and storage of favorite stops. Stops can also be found through their respective route. Routes can be sorted alphabetically or by route number.
With this application, you will never be in a rush when not necessary. You can savor your last minutes drinking a coffee knowing that it isnt until 7 more minutes that the bus will come. Never wait for buses again. Just two iPhone screen touches will put all the information you need in front of you immediately.
Other very nice features:
-Google map showing users location as well as nearest bus stops. Bus stops can be tapped in order to display arrival times for all buses going through the stop.
-Google map showing users location as well as the location and travel direction of buses corresponding to the current selected route.

Useless- completely inaccurate!
T rider
The program is not intuitive in structure and unfortunately, provides no information about train or trolley lines.
Perfect
This app is invaluable... Has a bunch of useful features, including the awesome augmented reality mode. Times are accurate; cant live without it. Ive tried all the MBTA bus time prediction apps and this one is by far the best.
Amazing
Im so happy I found this app. Its already saved me from a bunch of long-as waits at the stops. The map features are awesome.
Not bad for a beginner
In Boston it had the wrong busses coming to my stop. An OK app, but I think youll do better with PocketMBTA or CatchTheBus.
Works sometimes
The bus information this app displays is accurate and valuable. For this reason it has already paid for itself. The frustrating part is in the busses it fails to list. I just got on a bus at Alewife station, after arriving via T, that wasnt listed on the app, either as being at Alewife or as being a bus to shortly arrive at my house.
Good app
The update fixed my major complaint: only one of two busses that served a stop near my house showed up in the app. Now works. Docked half a star for the less than intuitive interface. You really have to rely on the "favorites" feature to make this app functional. Docked another half star for the gimped map feature. Only shows stops near the location where you first accesses the map; doesnt update as you move. Killing the app and restarting acts as a workaround, but thats a pain. Also, would like to see a feature where you could see all stops around another location on the map. This would help when planning a return trip. Thanks for the update!
