Pros and cons of Rocketman - Bus & Train Times app for iPhone and iPad

Rocketman - Bus & Train Times app good for

This service "RocketMan" is very special and efficient. Thanks for your existence!
I use this app everyday. It is so easy to use and easy to find where your bus is and when it will come. Ads are annoying but for a free app, easy to deal with.
App is great normally but for a few days just has not been working at all. Even deleted and re-downloaded.
The app is mostly good and is pretty accurate. My one issue is that the app keeps saying a series of stops dont exist, and therefore youre not able to get the timing for a certain strip of stops (specifically between spadina and ossington on college - the bus goes there, yet the app says no stops and offers no predictions).
Can only be as reliable as the ttc service, but in general pretty accurate most of the time.
Overall accurate app but whenever I set a reminder, the app doesnt alert me when the bus I picked to give me a reminder is coming in 5 mins or 10 etc...pls fix this problem

Some bad moments

App crashes 5 seconds after loading. Doesnt matter where I am in app. Please fix this!
In iOS 10, the widget can only display favorites if you enable location services, and if you do and add your favorites, the times they display do not match the app, so its useless. 1) why not allow users to add their favorite without enabling location services? 2) please fix the issues with the widget not updating the times correctly
Its one of the worst worst routes ! They are the slowest and worst route
So-so app, paid version not much better than free. Cannot see subsequent vehicle arrivals in list. And I dont need to see the time. I already know what time it is. It needs to show vehicles following, otherwise youll get on a crowded bus while the bus following is empty. I deleted this app 5 days after purchase.
I cannot figure out how this app works to tell me how to get from point A to Point B. Consider it very poor
I use this app every morning before I step out of the door to take the bus. It gave a purpose to the iPad. Great work!
