iRideUTA App Reviews

I love this app except I use it almost exclusively for the train and the train is not showing now. All busses and Trax have little green dots, but no dots for the train.

LOVE this app. The new directional icons are great. The maps are a bit hard to read with the stops cluttering them. Try the main 850 route through Utah County. Probably need to bring back the ability to turn off the stop display. I never found it useful since I knew where I was standing.

This app is a LIFE SAVER! Interface is awesome.. Minimal but very functional. And the new update has made it so much better. Thank you!

Smooth app, great information, would like to see detail on next stops and arrival times, but hey I am reviewing this at 12:37 in the morning, maybe the app will surprise me! Would also like to see extensions used more: notifications pushed to my phone when my train is set to arrive within the hour or something. Tons of potential here, very glad I have the app!

Crashed my iPhone first time I opened it.

This app has saved me from barely missing an early bus numerous times. But one thing Ive noticed is that the current location button isnt working, and its a little difficult to tap on the bus since every stop is tapable as well.

This app was great until they released the latest update. Before I could easily move the map around. I could use the locator button to zoom to my location. The bus or train locations would automatically update every few seconds. Now the app runs extremely slow. The locator button does not work at all. If I try to move the map or zoom in or out, there is several seconds of lag before anything happens. After a minute or two the bus or train locations stop updating. In order to get updated bus or train locations, I have to completely close and restart the app.

Doesnt show my location since the update

Loved this app. Not the update. Location services no longer work...at least for me this kills the usefulness of this app. Harder to read than the previous version for some reason...its a UI thing I cant quite put my finger on (no pun intended)

I am very happy to see favorites. Please make the stop locations optional. Sometimes they are helpful but most of the time they arent and make it hard to see the route. Please show multiple routes on the map at the same time, like all of the favorites. A really nice feature would be to have a "show all routes/busses near me" button or "show all routes/busses that are near me and have stops near specified locations" and it could be used to find a route plan.

Update: the latest version December 2014 has broken location services. :-( I hope that will be fixed soon. Now that it is winter I can sit in my warm car until the train is close. Sure there are a few very minor issues. It often shows double green dots for the trains. They are often almost on top of each other. It doesnt affect the usefulness but it isnt as pretty as it should be. It would be cool if the Front Runner stations were highlighted on the map but that might make the maps slow or too busy. Cool app. Glad to have it. Use it every day. Thanks. Look at the double green dot issue. There might be an easy fix or maybe not.

Loved the original but truly hate the updated version. I am not interested in every stop on my route and I should be able to select whether or not I want them displayed. Secondly, tonight as my bus was pulling up it was reported as being 2 miles away by this app. I can no longer rely on the information provided by this app. It is slow and cumbersome and inaccurate. As I said in the title “Even a broken watch is correct twice a day”. Is there a way to revert to the older version? Newer is not better in this case.

I credit this app for making it possible to go without replacing my car when it died. It does everything I need it to do. Its been invaluable for knowing when a bus is early, late, or for whatever reason not running. I use it multiple times a day every weekday. On the latest update I miss having the location services and the ability to turn off the stop spots. Its a little cluttered with all the stops. The directional indicators and the UI improvements are great in the latest update! Thank you for all your work on this app!

In the past, this has been a great app that I depend on daily. However, the new version is less helpful as described by several other people. I hope the fixes come soon. Thanks for your help.

For those of you who are complaining about inaccuracies, this app is designed to pull information directly from UTA. If you want to blame somebody for the inaccuracies, blame UTA, not the developer. This app is great. It has a sleek, modern UI and is incredibly user friendly. I really like the ability to set favorites and filter forms of transportation that you cant use. I have 2 issues with this app, but none of them are huge: 1. Scrolling on the map is slow and choppy. This may be a simple issue of optimization, or it could be unfixable due to the developer using 3rd party assets. This doesnt really factor into my rating, but it would be nice if it could be addressed. 2. Theres no way to remove ads. Ads infuriate me beyond belief, but as an independent developer myself I understand the need for them. However, it would be nice if the developer could incorporate a micro transaction of a few dollars to remove advertisements. I would gladly pay for it. All in all this is a great app, and is essential to anyone using UTA; because we all know theyre ALWAYS on time.

Wheres the 992 bus? Its the one I use. Bring back the older version of this app, which had it! ???

Best app for college student who dont have cars

No data at all. The map is there, but it isnt worth much when the train and bus locations are not shown.

There is no info for ski bus 992!

But they need to get rid of the stop locations and let you decided if you want them on like in the old version.
