Pretty good but where is Ride On?

This is a pretty good app overall. The bus timing seems accurate and the stations are clearly marked. Being able to select a route and highlight it on the map is fantastic, and something I desperately want in the Metro app. Including it differentiates this app.

However, the Ride On buses seem non-existent. Even once you turn them on in "settings" they don't show up. This is unfortunate, as I was really looking for an app that can handle the Ride On buses smoothly.

Finally, there's no option to search by station or by route. If that was included, this would be by far the best DC area bus app.

Great bug response

I emailed the developer when the location button disappeared, and even though the issue was probably my old phone + my not-updated iOS, the dev updated the app to fix it within a few days. Thanks!

It's not precise now

This app used to estimate next bus very well. But unfortunately now it is not precise at all, I have to delete it although I have had it for over a year:(
