My Ride K-12 4+

This app has provided all the essentials for a view of our bus route and timing. Thumbs up for a nice transition from Ride360. Every app, heck every software product from the first one using the Mark II back in 1947, has some quirks, bugs, or oddities, hence updates are needed. For all those critical of this or any app, please contact the app developer and give more specifics as to the problems and how you got there. I am sure they will be pulling all nighters to get things fixed. Yes been there done that, created some bugs and fixed a lot more.

Thank you for the kind words! Our development team is eager to help and reads all the feedback that comes in. Glad you enjoy the new app!

This app was advertised as realtime updates and notifications with the very useful ability of tracking the progress of my kids’ school bus. It failed miserably at each of those tasks. For instance, the app did not adjust the bus’s drop off time to reflect their school’s half day on their first day of school. Students were released from school at 10:30am, yet the app kept the time listed as a 3:00pm release. That seems like a simple (and crucial) “realtime update” to make. I also received zero notifications. Nothing when the bus left the school or got near us. (And again, nothing about the half day.) Finally, there’s the ability to track the progress of the bus — a remarkably useful tool — that, you guessed it, didn’t work. Instead of receiving the bus’s location when I selected “bus location” I was treated to a static map of my house and the school, which never once featured anything even resembling a bus let alone a moving location marker that could, I don’t know, tell me my kids’ “bus location.” This app is a total failure. In its present (useless) form I don’t see the point of it. It is simply a collection of erroneous, static times with no actual communication, no notifications, and no “bus location.” It’s an app that could of (should of) been an email — instead of wasting space on my phone.

We are sorry to hear this! Most of what you are saying needs to be updated by your district for it to work. For example, if an early dismissal is not entered into our system, we can't update the times, which means we have the wrong times to send notifications, and the wrong times to make the bus location available. It creates a domino effect of bad information that we cannot control. If you want to leave us feedback through the application, we'd be happy to work with you more to understand the specific issue that happened at your district and see how we can improve!

It doesn’t show any scans and no routes it just say his info and not any thing and yes it’s up to date and has been this way sense the day I added this crappy app. I can’t believe I had to download apps for my children to ride the bus with something on my husband‘s taxes pay for we pay taxes to several counties and only have one child in school in one county so you would think something you had to do extra. You already paid for the buses and things and the school stuff shouldn’t have to do anything extra for your children to ride the bus that you already paid for and with a stupid app a computer app something that has to have Internet service app, yeah I keep saying it app app doesn’t make sense to me either an app to ride the bus and an app that doesn’t work correct and nobody can tell me why so why did I have to take my top and download this and try and figure it out and it doesn’t work anyway and what happens when the bus is already in any kind of signals to use these apps is anyone thought of that and what about the apps that doesn’t work for people, mine has never worked. No one can explain why mine doesn’t work.

We are sorry to hear this. Routing and scan information is controlled by your local school district. We can only show the information that they make available. If you would like us to try and work with your district and see what’s going on, please leave feedback in the app.
