What’s “Invalid Agency”? It’s MUNI’s failure!

The app shows the error now as SF MUNI, the most incompetent public transportation organization in the world, is doing one of their “upgrades” and cut off a number of apps from their feed. SF MUNI is a total disgrace and everyone working there should be fired. This department ought to be rebuild from the scratch after finding people who run the same business in Japan, Germany, Switzerland or any other place where they served a couple of million inhabitants. Anyway, I received a really fast response to my initial post with an explanation why the app does not work anymore in SF - thank you Alex very much for that. I’m happy to update my review as this is a problem created by MUNI. Original app is great because you can see a number of buses at the same time instead of only one line. I was happy to learn that Alex Perez created another app that work in SF

Disappointed

This app will remove my selected routes and replace with undesired routes at various times.

Can’t find agency list!

Had high hopes for a clean and simple NextBus app...but this app simply hangs (for me) when it first comes up saying “Error loading agency list...” There is nowhere else to go at that point so for me the app is useless. Suspect something in the NextBus api changed. Here’s hoping the Developer fixes this soon. Will be happy to rate again when it works! UPDATE: Agency list now loads, thanks. I think the core ideas of this app are what I am looking for, but there are a few issues or me. At first it was not clear why I only saw a limited number of routes in the tab bar across the top and could only browse a subset of the routes.. (figured that out by going into the setting). Then with my routes preselected I was still having issues selecting a route/tab (but granted, I have been seeing other apps have somewhat similar issues on iPad after iOS 11.) But probably most disconcerting (and something that could be easily fixed) is the stop-favorites prediction times do not show which bus is coming at what time... just the prediction times (some of my stops have multiple routes I ride).
