Nothing more annoying than getting served an inescapable video ad 2 minutes long while you're trying to figure which bus to get on to... and it serves the ad BEFORE you can get any traveling data. Extremely annoying and defeats the purpose of the app. I understand you need to make money but not at the functional expense of the app

I don't know what happened with the last update but the app icon now says UK when I have the NY one installed and my widget got deleted because now you have to create an account and sign in just to save favorite bus stops? It was good before this update. Now the widget is ridiculously huge compared to before. Too much screen real estate wasted. Also, the UI is now difficult to read and no longer intuitive. There is also a lot of wasted space. This changed for the worst with new ownership.

Hi Joseph - thanks for your feedback. We're still the same company making the app, we've updated it to keep it running. Sign-in was heavily requested so that you can access your favourites across multiple devices. And we hope the incorrect icon will be fixed soon.

I absolutely hate the new update. Not only did it erase all of my favorited stops, but it's also ugly, harder to use, harder to read, and overall unwelcome. If I had wanted a different user interface, I would've downloaded a different app. The previous design was simple, concise, and easy to read. I don't see why you didn't just release a different app if you wanted to change things so badly.
