Megabus USA for Negative User Reviews
✓ Completely UselessDeleting it; first year I used it was OK, now ZERO functionality. Check rates/buy tickets? Redirect to website (where you get to fill everything in again). Check bus location/ETA? Neither app nor mobile website do this anymore. Totally unimpressed..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Nothing for ukOnly for the usa! Rubbish!.Version: 1.3.4
✓ Still no UK versionPretty pointless from the UK's point of view... Been waiting for the last 3 years for a UK version and still nothing!.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Don't waste your space.All it does is show you stations on a map with no fare info, then sends you to their main page on Safari to do the searches all over again..Version: 2.1.2
✓ App crashes when I select cityI can’t buy a ticket or check status on this app. It used to work, but now whenever I select a destination city (Austin, TX), it crashes. Really poor QA from the software company!.Version: 2.1.3
✓ What’s the point?I entered in my date, time, and travelling to and fro and when I hit Buy Tickets it simply sent me to their website, where I have to start all over again. Truly, what is the point of this app?.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Plz add the UK travel menuMegabus is the best web for travel so plz add more booking and travel from united kingdom add in this application plz plz thanks.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Terrible functionality, if you can call it that!I never submit ratings for apps but, in good conscience, I just couldn't let this one pass. Really guys, this app doesn't allow purchases and is clunky when trying to track details of trips purchased. It sends you to the Megabus website when you select purchase, which I could accept if it tracked and recorded details of the trip(s) you purchased, but it doesn't even do that. I enjoy taking megabus so I won't let this lousy app deter me but this app is so terrible that it does a disservice to the company and is probably costing them revenue. FIX IT OR DISCONTINUE IT. Jeez..Version: 2.1.2
✓ This app is really poorly writtenIt is almost as if the CEO of mega bus hired his 12-year-old nephew to program a app. While it technically probably meets the list of requirements so the kid could get paid – – it is almost unusable. I have seen apps written for government websites that I would consider to be worthless that are 50 times better than this thing Mega bus do yourself a favor, throw this app away and spend $1000 for somebody in India to write you a good one.Version: 2.1.3
✓ App crashes every time I try to save tripI select all of the trip info and if I click “trip status” it seems to work ok. If I click “save trip” the app shuts down and doesn’t save. I’ve closed and reopened the app. I’ve rebooted my phone. Same issue..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Terrible app, needs workDoes a good job if you’re buying a ticket. But afterwards, when I clicked the trips tab, it tells me I don’t have any saved trips. The little bus driver icon in the upper left corner does nothing to take you a menu. The buy tickets tab at bottom at least takes you to Megabus web site where you can at least log on and see your ticket if you know your reservation number.. Why bother with an app if it’s easier to go to the website. Scary when you’re on the move..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Worthless app!Why even bother creating an app if this is what you came up with. No information on where pick ups are. The map is worthless. I questioned if this was even a real app because of how half-as it was. Don't bother putting it on anything..Version: 2.1.2
✓ The worst app both in interface and workingThe app is a buggy mess of unresponsive buttons that defaults setting only to the USA and screw you if you want to change anything or want to travel out side the USA.Version: 2.1.2
✓ WorthlessThis app serves no purpose whatsoever. I Purchased tickets on the website, and installed this app thinking I would be able to find my trip and access my tickets with the app. There is no way to login no way to retrieve tickets. The only thing this app does is to waste memory on your phone..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Crashes to home screen upon entering the state leavingI don't know if the developers ever read this but for the last several weeks this thing just crashes you can't do anything with the app at all.Version: 2.1.2
✓ Not really even an appI don't even think this can be called an app. It's basically something to take you to the MegaBus website, and not much else. Want to book tickets? This will literally take you to the MegaBus website. Come on, MegaBus. You can do better..Version: 2.1.3
✓ GarbageYou don’t need this app for any purpose. It’s garbage and waste of time. Not sure why the developer made it..Version: 2.1.4
✓ What about the UkWhere is the UK app???.Version: 1.1.3
✓ Don’t believe trip status info!!!This is a totally useless App. The trip status tracking is totally unreliable!!! On my last trip it was showing that my bus would be leaving 3 hours late, but when I called customer service they said it was running on time, so I would’ve missed my bus if I was going by the app. Don’t bother with the app.Version: 2.1.3
✓ This App Is GarbageDon’t waste your time with this outdated app - it doesn’t work. If you need to track your bus go to the Megabus website and go to the “Check my bus” tab, select “Track my bus”, then enter your departure and arrival destinations..Version: 2.1.4
✓ Fix the app!!!!I was happy with this app until it stopped working. And now there’s no way I can find out if my bus is going to be on time or late. There’s no place close to watch for the bus in bad weather. It needs to be updated and ASAP..Version: 2.1.2
✓ App CrashMobile app is junk. It crashes when selecting the destination and the user interface is not user friendly at all.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Screw this app and this company.The only reason I ride with Megabus is because the tickets are so cheap but I guess that’s why the app is just as crappy, I have to hope that the bus is running on time which is extremely rare customer service is complete garbage and when you call them to find out where the bus and why its running late how they tell you is to just continue to wait but they don’t give you an ETA. The drivers are always rude in their buses always break down, also not to mention they have the most inconvenient bus times they used to have one that left in the morning several in the afternoon and a couple at night now they only have one that leaves mid afternoon and after 10 o’clock in the evening seriously?!?! I have a better chance hitchhiking than using this service go to greyhound don’t support this company!!!.Version: 2.1.3
✓ What’s the point of this app?You can’t buy tickets on it. You enter your origin and destination and then when you click get tickets it takes you to their website where you have to, again, enter all the information. Completely useless..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Please update this app… 😑I don’t understand how a business can have an app this bad… The interface seems like a bad beta version. Logging in takes you out of the app, trying to select the destination doesn’t work as there are only two choices, the save trip button doesn’t work, and the trip status button doesn’t work. This totally defeats the purpose and eliminates any convenience this app could provide. If you’re going to continue being comfortable taking customer’s money, it’s way past time to have a functioning app….Version: 2.1.4
✓ App is fine. Do not purchase ticketsTickets are completely non refundable, no credits are permissable either. If You have to change something your money is just gone. Never again will I use their service. I'm surprised they're still in business with non refundable tickets..Version: 2.1.2
✓ Never tracks when most neededIt seems there is only about a 50% chance that I can actually track a bus when I need to. This last time, the app didn’t even give my current trip as an option to choose!.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Uk :-(No Uk version ?.Version: 1.1.3
✓ PointlessCan't buy tickets from the app and when you do click on the button to buy them, it just takes you to the homepage of the Megabus website. Then to make matters worse, the UI is terrible..Version: 2.1.2
✓ UselessCan’t do anything with it, avoid it.Version: 2.1.3
✓ No UK versionObviously it's the U.S. Version, but hurry up and make some options for UK. Losing many customers not having a uk version...Version: 1.3.4
✓ Horrible AppI agree with other people writing about how bad Megabus customer service and the App is. App doesn’t work half the time and times it does work the info is not upto date. My kids use Megabus to travel from NewYork and State College, PA to come home. App is okay when making reservations and it does ask for emergency tel number but bus is often late ( sometimes for hours) and no texts ever sent by Megabus to customers so they don’t have to waste their time waiting for bus. I think Megabus need to spend some money to upgrade this horrible app to better serve their customers..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Horrible app to use...Takes way too long to initiate and start. It just spins and spins... no menu or items on dock to jump to, just Google Map loading and loading and loading... Definitely one of the worst apps out there. No wonder the Megabus USA bus driver icon hangs his head in shame....Version: 2.1.3
✓ HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!!Over 3 hours late and still no answers as to when they’ll get here. People are literally stand in around in the middle of the night with no answers. Customer service line barely speaks English and just doesn’t give a crap..Version: 2.1.3
✓ ReallyWhere is the UK app. Really in this day and age😳🤔.Version: 2.1.2
✓ Not for CanadaIt does not have canadian cities!?.Version: 1.0.1
✓ There should be a special penalty for whomever designed this garbage back in 2007How is this app even approved? It does nothing. It’s a static search form that crashes while you use it and if you make it to the end and want to book it just opens the Megabus website as a blank search form to start your search there from scratch. Fellas, if the Megabus mobile site was in working order (oh, for example not forgetting NYC as a city they serve), I wouldn’t have gotten this app in the first place. Thankfully FlixBus (now parent company of Greyhound) operate a reliable service to the same places and have an app with 52k 5-star reviews. Tells you everything you need to know.Version: 2.1.4
✓ Absolute WASTE of time and phone space.Don't bother to download! The app has you fill out your trip dates and times and location, only to throw you to the actual website then you have to enter all of the information all over again! JUST GO STRAIGHT TO THE SITE AND DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME DOWNLOADING THIS CRAP!.Version: 2.1.2
✓ Not able to book a ticket on the app!!!!!Is useless app, either to delete this app or make it useful app that allows people to book there tickets through the app. How come a big transit company like Megabus and they can not develop an app to serve the basic requirements of a customer wants to book a ticket or check the status of a trip. There a lot need to be done on this app actually it needs to be redeveloped from scratch and make it a real app. I think all not only most of the people check this app have the same thoughts as mine. Fix it ASAP.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Only Useful if you live in USI live in UK, so it is of no use to me!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Fix itGPS for bus arrival works great, I can judge when to leave my house for the bus stop by where it is on its route and works out perfectly every time. But please fix the bug where it crashes every time i try to save a trip!! I take the same route every single weekend and I’m sick of having to plug in all the trip info every time I open the app..Version: 2.1.2
✓ Extremely Frustrating Experience!I got an email from the company that my trip was going to be delayed. I arrive on time because I think “better safe than sorry”. However, the bus either didn’t came in 2 hours or it left early than scheduled. I had to buy another ticket next day. Extremely frustrating experience and will never use Megabus again..Version: 2.1.3
✓ No ukTo say the mega bus brand was conceived by a uk company and still owned by the same uk company, yet there no uk routes within the app, shame on you stagecoach.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Not connectedDoes not connect to your account. Cannot display your tickets. Does not synch to your account to add your schedule. Buying tickets opens your browser, so why use the app. Just add a bookmark in your browser..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Worst app EVER!!This is my first review if an app ever. This one crashed three times while trying to get fares. Then once I entered all the info, it took me to the website where I had to enter it all over again. Nope. @ Megabus IT team, you have quite a bit of work on this one..Version: 2.1.3
✓ No point to this appJust use your web browser instead. This app does nothing except make you enter info to take you to your web browser then enter it all over again. Used to be better..Version: 2.1.2
✓ UselessNo good if you want to travel in UK. There is no app for UK.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Don’t botherWaste of time!.Version: 2.1.3
✓ PointlessSuper slow and just links to the website?.Version: 2.0.0
✓ If I could rate it 0 stars I wouldNo functionality but most importantly the ability to track your bus is terrible. My bus is currently 90 minutes late and I’ve been instructed to wait and see when it will arrive because they cannot estimate when it will arrive..Version: 2.1.3
✓ The worst app ever. Period.I can write a better app in less than 4 hours without a UX/UI designer. Terrible UI, the tracking doesn't work when you want it the most. My friend is coming from DC; no cell phone. Had I known how unreliable their bus tracking is, I would have recommended her a different bus service. Come on, it is not rocket science to show the location of a bus on a map. Actually launchin those satellites involve rocket science and I am happy that NASA/SpaceX is in that business; not these developers...Version: 2.1.2
✓ Not for UKOnly covers US cities. No use for people in the UK. Also, would be cool if you could buy or at least check the price of tickets in the app.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Terrible app, poor time keepingWould NOT recommend! It was cheap, so it drove competition away from San Jose to Anaheim route. The app keeps crashing, have to go to website to book. The bus service was also poor. I arrived just in time but the driver drove away before 7:40 am. I am sure because he drove away as I arrived one minute before. 10:30 bus Driver demanded $5 to get on. Ride ok until arrival downtown Los Angeles stop. Bus could not start for 45minutes..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Left to rot?A forgotten about app that doesn't even boot. Might as well be removed from the App Store..Version: 2.0.1
✓ UselessLike the company itself. Useless. Utterly useless..Version: 1.3.2
✓ Why bother?The app is absolute trash. Clunky interface, far fewer features than the web interface, doesn’t seem to support logging in to save tickets, or anything else useful. Quite possibly the worst app I’ve ever seen..Version: 2.1.3
✓ No helpThis did not help me at all. Just kept telling me it was unavailable and to check back 30 prior to my departure (and it's still saying that). This app needs work..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Useless AppThis app does not include Buffalo NY or the Buffalo Niagara International Airport in Buffalo NY which are full Megabus stops and tickets can be purchased for those locations!!! Also Toronto Canada is not included which again is a Megabus stop location. How many other cities have been missed by the authors??? Do not launch an app and be like Microsoft asking others to help debug your crappy software. Either do it right the first time or don't do it at all!!.Version: 1.0.7
✓ Can’t book certain destinationsWhen I select the from city as Orlando it only shows two possible destinations to purchase tickets for. If I go to the website I can see the full list.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Use FlixBus instead. This app hasn’t been update in 4 yearsLong story short, this app is terrible, the actual service is okay. Download FlixBus if it’s available in your area. The actually service that Megabus provides sadly due to the lack of public transportation in the United States we have to ride busses when I would much rather be able to take a train specially since I mostly use Megabus to travel to another city in my state that’s only about 120 miles away, something that if I lived in Europe I would be able to just ride a train instead. Now let’s talk about just the app. No updates in 4 years…. What else do I need to say. Apple should remove this app from the AppStore. This app really is completely useless, the design is straight from the 1990’s and i mean design by kids in the 1990’s actually kids back then would’ve probably done a better job. Pro tip, just use safari and go to the website if you need to use Megabus..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Needs more featuresI know having an app is cool and trendy, but to release one where you can't actually purchase or retrieve tickets in it has me confused. I guess the trip tracking is cool, but more functionality would be helpful.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Horrible AppI purchased a ticket through a browser but was unable to add that ticket to the app. The app will only display tickets you buy through the app. What a horrible and stupid system..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Has never given me locationHorrible, never gives you the location of the bus and when the departure date is different from the arrival date, The system gives you an error saying you can not choose a departure date in the past.... So if my bus leave tonight and arrives tomorrow morning, i wont be able to track it at all. Please fix this bug!!.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Problematic appDate is not insert able when searching for tickets to buy. Basically I can't buy tickets through the app.Version: 1.1.0
✓ More like Mega Bust!Downloaded this app to check on our Megabus, which had inexplicably departed 20 minutes before its scheduled time, leaving 7 ticketed passengers stranded. The app is filled with bugs and bad UI decisions. Would not recommend it, and would not recommend taking Megabus..Version: 2.1.3
✓ Good to badI used to be able to search and purchase tickets on the app before the update but now it just redirects me to safari.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Quite pointlessI'll be honest. I understand this is a bus service, but seriously. There is no way to track or hold your tickets, no way to purchase rides, I really don't see any need to have this app. I expected to just log in, and save my ticket stub or possibly add to the passbook/wallet. Nope. This company made a app for no reason.Version: 2.1.2
✓ On the roadThis is a useless app since it does not include Canadian cities. Also many American cities such as buffalo and Niagara. This is crab....Version: 1.0.7
✓ Largely uselessYes, you can track a bus through this app, but you can do the same nearly as easily on the mobile website. You can't do anything else on this app. It will act as if it's doing something but it will then open the website with no information saved. I don't recommend it in the slightest..Version: 2.1.2
✓ TERRIBLE APP STOLEN MY MONEYThis app is terrible! I purchase a ticket, but never received the confirmation to get on the bus. I had to pay again when I was getting on the bus. I want my money back and want them to do better..Version: 2.1.4
✓ Crashes alwaysUseless as it just crashes all the time, no update for almost a year..Version: 2.1.3
