GRTC
- the only official transit mobile app from GRTC. With this application, you'll have comprehensive real-time information of transit services in the Greater Richmond area right in the palm of your hand.
The new app allows you to:
* Access real-time GRTC bus tracker information. Don't miss your next bus. This app will provide the estimated arrival times of buses approaching your stop. It also allows you to see the location of buses on a map, so that you can visually track it as it approaches. You also have the ability to store your favorite stops and routes.
* Locate nearby bus stops.
* Receive current service updates through service bulletins. Instantly you will receive which routes are being detoured, stops closed or if GRTC will be operating under a different schedule during a holiday or inclement weather.
* View fare information.
* Submit comments and suggestions regarding your transit experience. GRTC welcomes feedback from its customers. Use the app to submit your complaints, concerns, comments and suggestions or if you would like to report a safety issue.
* Access important GRTC contact telephone numbers. Here you will find a list of important GRTC numbers you can use for trip-planning questions, lost items on transit, or transit concerns.
• A note about reroutesIf a bus goes off its regular route, our system will no longer be able to predict accurate arrival times. It will not be able to automatically predict when it will return to normal service. And, it may not be able to show the bus on our map. Please check for service alerts.

The busses sometimes do not show at all nor are they tracked, the app is outdated, some stops aren't shown and other problems where it says a bus is coming and I'm still waiting 2 hours at the wrong stop.
App keeps givinge routes where the bus doesn't even show up. I've had this happen three times in the last week. Do they bother updating the routes in this?
I'm so happy they finally fixed the bug where Android users couldn't autofill their destination (it caused a lot of really weird interactions, like assuming I was referring to an address in Illinois even if input manually)
I love it. The fact that I can pretty much know what time and at what time to leave home to catch the bus. It's pretty consistent on the timing of the arrival of the bus. It works great for my usage, I know that traffic an any incidents on the road might affect your arrival. That is life.
The expected arrival times don't match up with when the buses actually arrive. I often find that the buses come much earlier than the app would indicate.
It doesn't work well on Android. When I use the "Where are you going" search it always says "an error has occurred". Buggy, but functional if you know how to get around the kinks.
It dont show bus stops anymore and you have to type in the stop number to see times of bus times and its very slow and dont show the stops you type in and you still have to search through a good number of stops to find the 1 stop typed in extra slow and not at all the same
I like the old one better where you can key in the route and stop #. The app tells u the real-time arrival of the bus. U could.even see where the bus is on a map.
It's been over a year since your last update. The app is barely functional when it's not crashing.
Bus doesn't show on app. And it doesn't show alert. So you have to call to see about the bus you are waiting on. Which makes the app useless
New to RVA and finding this app to be fairly useless. Google Maps provides similar data in a 1000% better package. Also, why the heck would ticketing be a different app?
This app is at best an approximation of when or if a bus will actually arrive. The software is in need of a total re-write.
Very helpful except when it is completely wrong and that is too often. Use it, but double check what it says.
Don't even bother looking at the schedules/time estimations. Especially since the update.
Someone's out doesn't show the bus coming... And constantly says delay... Otherwise a good app.. SN.. your bus drivers are rude and disrespectful!!!! 🗑️🗑️
This App is so easy to use I love it! It gives you schedules for all routes, the stop numbers everything
This app doesn't even telling you properly when the bus is coming and then on it's always saying "Next arrival for 30mins" this app is crazy
The app is functional but the bus drivers are lazy as hell sitting a street and not doing their job.
It's got it use but always glitch and trying to plan a trip always never seem to work
New install of the APP still doesn't give any routes for my trips. FIX THIS!
0 stars for new app update. It's so situational I have to be in a bad position to use it. Might as well use google maps it's better
The app never works properly and it's down all the time.
The bus drivers are never on time. They do as they please worse experience ever. Would give 0 stars if I could!
This app is very helpful when using the bus system, but it needs major work done. Sometimes buses that are incoming disappear, leaving me at a station for way longer than I want to be. I also can no longer type in a destination when planning a ride and have search results come up. There is just an error message that shows up. Glitch issues as well.
