What's New

Welcome to version 3 - bigger and brighter! Now with a colourful design to help you navigate, with bright, bold departure boards, improved journey planning and route maps.

What's new in this release:
• New home screen: now includes a mini-map to instantly see all the bus stops around you
• Now you can tap on a bus service to see where it goes and when it gets there
• New design: bold colours to make it easier to see bus arrival times outdoors
• Every screen has had an overhaul - we've worked hard to make sure everything is as easy to use as possible

We hope you enjoy the new release - there's a lot more to come!

App Description

Need to know when buses are arriving, and where they're going? This is the app for you.

Key Features:
• Get real-time or scheduled bus times for every stop in Cardiff.
• See every nearby bus route, showing you where they go and which company operates them
• Live directions: search for somewhere, and we'll give you up to five ways to get there quickly by bus - it even takes disruptions and diversions into account.
• Save your favourite bus stops, and then rename them to something you'll remember: 'Near house' etc.
• The best search in town: we use a combination of our own search database and the social location powerhouse that is Foursquare, so whatever you type in - an address, a postcode, or even local points of interest like pubs and restaurants, we'll show you the bus stops nearby.
• Only care about the services you use? Customise a bus stop's departure board so you only see the services you want to see.
• Get home fast: just press on the 'Get me home' button and the app will find the quickest bus routes for you
• Set a daily update for any bus stop - it'll send you the next three upcoming departures at a specific time of the day even when the app is closed.
• Your choice of maps: built-in or Google Maps - you choose!
• The best-designed travel app out there - fresh and clean, showing you only the information you care about, it's designed from the ground up to blend with iOS 7.


What they say about our apps:
“This is way better than relying on timetables. Great app!”
“I've searched for a decent bus app and having used this one I can say its the best I've used outside London. Very pleased.”
“Very useful app, have never missed the bus with this application.”
“This is a fantastic app. I'm a regular user of buses and they're not terribly reliable, but with this app it keeps me up to date - and when I got lost this app directed me to the nearest stop so I could get home. Many thanks!”


Plus the usual great features you expect from BusExpert:
• iCloud integration: save your favourites on your iPhone, and they're synced seamlessly to your other iOS devices
• Bus stops and services update automatically whenever a service change occurs

If you could take a minute to review our app after each update, we'd be really grateful. Your reviews help us improve and update our apps. We update our apps regularly - so tell us what you want to see at [email protected]

And finally: the app works best with an active data connection and GPS :)
