TransLoc

A few years ago this app was wonderful. It showed all the local routes for Suffolk County New York. I recently been in a very bad accident. I cannot drive I need to take public transportation. I downloaded a trans app and they have not updated any of the route information at all. Suffolk County has updated and added new routes to the bus lines and this is not reflected in the trans lock app. Many times I’ve tried to get my bus and I don’t no where it is I don’t know if it came early if it’s coming late or how long I’ll be standing in the rain. Two of the lines that I currently use are newly added lines that are combinations of other lines or just a new route in Total. Please update your app to the new routes of the Suffolk transit authority, and Suffolk County on Long Island in New York

Today my bus was 2 hours late and when it got here they gave us 3 minutes to get out before they left us. Other days when I’m at school, they come earlier than when I schedule and get mad at me because I can’t leave the school building until it’s time to leave (which is the time a schedule). Sometimes they would even leave me at the school with no way home. Other times they come an hour or two later. I’ve never gotten a bus on time, but I don’t mind it being a few minutes of. As a student I felt like I had a little control over how I get to and from school.

As noted by many users, the new TransLoc app is great if you just want to know when the next public transit of any kind in your immediate area is coming. If you want to look at a route you AREN’T immediately standing on or figure out a SPECIFIC route, well, you’re out of luck. I used to be able to look AHEAD of where I EXACTLY was, but, like the Start button on Windows, wiser developers than I removed a beloved easy to use, powerful feature, then told us why we didn’t need it when we users said we missed the feature and didn’t like the interaction with the new feature, you removed one of your best features and will probably tell us why this one we don’t like to use is better and we’re dumb for wanting the simpler older tool back until you cave after way too much complaining. Please bring back the old map/route feature from Rider.
