User reviews
Users appreciate BusLive's real-time public transport tracking and simple interface, which aids in trip planning especially when schedules are unreliable. However, many report frequent bugs such as missing buses, inaccurate routes, and failure to update positions. Intrusive advertising after recent updates has led to negative experiences. Core features sometimes require Wi-Fi or premium access, limiting usability on mobile data. Overall, while useful, the app suffers from reliability issues and UI problems, prompting some to prefer alternatives.
Pros
- Provides real-time tracking of buses and trams, which can be a lifesaver for planning trips.
- Simple and easy-to-use interface with better GPS tracking than Google Maps at times.
- Helps users decide whether to wait at a stop or not, especially useful when timetables are unreliable due to external factors like roadworks or Covid.
- Useful for public transport systems that operate infrequently, allowing users to time departures better.
Cons
- Frequent app glitches and inaccuracies such as missing some buses, showing wrong routes, and not updating positions reliably.
- Excessive and intrusive advertisements after updates, making the app difficult to use and leading some users to uninstall.
- Core features like actual vehicle tracking only work on Wi-Fi, not mobile data, which frustrates users expecting full functionality without premium subscriptions.
- Certain functionalities are missing or broken, like filtering by line and checking times at stops.
- The app often fails to connect properly to the data provider (ZTM Warszawa), causing failures in displaying bus information.

Ad spam. Just uninstall this s. "Data Provider by ZTM Warszawa unavailable" and app shows buses - should i assume IT LIES??? Edit-reply: no, i cannot help you debug the application that spams me with nasty advertisement. Debug it yourself. Period. Ps. You have the money for advertisement, use it for debugging. Or you can pay me.
