If you're in HK and using the bus, ignore this app. Download the KMB app instead; it shows Citybus routes. The Citybus app, unchanged since 2018, still takes ages to display estimated arrival times and keeps GPS on in the background, draining battery. Despite complaints over the years, there have been no responses or improvements.
What used to be a usable app has now become a lag and bug filled experience. I don’t mind that ads have been added in (the developers need to monetize somehow), but I do mind if the developers don’t implement the advertisement system well. For the past week I’ve been unable to open the app without it crashing before I can even get to my bus number, effectively rendering the experience useless.
With the latest update of the app there are suddenly large advertisements and auto play videos that cover up most of the screen. They really slow down the app and seem to cause crashes. Is this an infected version of the app? It is hard to believe the bus service would ruin such a decent app on purpose!
