A cleaner, calmer RVA Ride.
• Save your stops. Tap the star on any stop, and your saved stops appear as soon as you open search.
• Times read the way you say them: "5 min · Arrives 4:02 PM".
• When service is done for the day, the app says so: "No more buses tonight", or the next scheduled time.
• Service alerts stay compact and never push your next bus off the screen.
• If live times go stale, a quick Retry brings them back.
• Stop names in normal capitalization, with "Stop 11 · East End" on every route.
• A cleaner route strip, with a red dot on routes that have alerts.
• Light haptics when you pick a route or stop.
• Spanish translations for everything new.
