Pros and cons of BusBuddy Ottawa app for iPhone and iPad

BusBuddy Ottawa app good for

Its a trusted friend with the weather weve been having! Super useful! Thanks for a great app!
Great but could you please add the 111 St.puis route if you did the app would be perfect
I really appreciate the ease of use and design of this APP. Its very functional and saves me time and grief daily. Thank you for making it available.
Im useless when it comes to bussing. With this app its so easy!!! I wouldve been lost many times without this app to get me from Glen Cairn to Southkeys and back
I cant plan a trip without it crashing after I put in the address. This is an amazing app when this issue isnt happening (It comes and goes.)
Better than the official app from OCTranspo. Well laid out and easy to understand. Latest update made this app even better than before.

Some bad moments

Too complicated!! Should tell which bus to take to get to places, and when.
Transit app has much better user interface. Bus buddy is a bunch of multicoloured route numbers and stops -- very text heavy in other words -- and not at all easy to follow.
And now Im late for class, again. The stop times are not accurate on weekends, mornings, or nights. Not sure where they get their schedule from, but it is frequently inaccurate, and for a bus app that is just unacceptable.
App randomly stopped working and says schedule available until null. No times or bus numbers come up at all.
Keeps crashing whenever I try to use the travel planner. Used to love this until they put ads in!
In the last week the app constantly crashes and closes. It is not functional at all. Very disappointed.
