I would like to take this bus to work not only from
Work. No information
Busted as of Oct 2025
No longer functional
Very good live bus map
It has all the routes. I use this whenever I need to use public transit in LA.
What happened!?
This was my “go to” app for transportation but sadly it is currently useless. The last update removed all my pins & now DOESNT HAVE THE MAJORITY OF ROUTES! I hope someone can fix this ASAP so travel can once again be convenient & not a guessing game
Great for tracking but...
Great for tracking but for some reason the locations of each individual vehicle on the line (number + run) aren’t showing up any more. This was very helpful especially for those “bus fans” out there.
Great APP
This app is great and it shows were the bus is at on map.
Does NOT work anymore
Although they still had MetroWatch brochures on their buses last week, it doesn’t work. I thought paying to have the ads removed would remedy the issue, but no… it doesn’t show anything on the app whatsoever. And I just found that when looking at the reviews for this app, many positive ones were at the top of the page… but when I sorted to the most recent, many said it wasn’t working. Should have looked in the first place. What a waste of money and time. Those brochures should have been removed from the buses. I’m going back to Google Transit.
So Far So Good
Good App as the title implies
Close but no cigar
It’s often off by a couple of minutes. Which isn’t a problem... up until you realize that the bus left a couple minutes before you arrived and when it was supposed to.
Great app but missing some key routes
Super helpful app but I really wish it included the dash as well as the different metro train lines.
Quite Accurate
I’ve only used this a few times while waiting for the bus, but each time, the accuracy has been amazing. Accurate to the minute, in fact. Makes my wait less stressful as I can be on my phome without constantly looking for the bus.
Doesnt work!
This thing Doesnt show the times
Useful!
This app is helpful for seeing when the bus will arrive. The only negative I've found is not being able to display a full route, but it could be possible and I'm just missing how.
Great tool
Very helpful as I plan my commutes. Gives scheduled arrival times for buses on my route. Only wish it could also reflect actual route times, or if a particular bus was running late.
ACCURATE AND RELIABLE
I’ve been using this app for two years now and still going. You won’t regret downloading this app trust me for real.
Doesn’t seem to work anymore.
Shame because it was the most reliable app for LA. I keep trying but to no avail.
Needs rail info
Like the app. Well designed and thought out. Just needs rail info.
Great app for the bus rider
Great time reminders, seems to be highly accurate. Great coverage as well.
Metro Watch
The app seems to have stopped working period. No bus routes will appear anymore. Deleted and reinstalled the app, to no avail.
Beats the rest
Simple and easy to use.up to date.
Completely inaccurate
I've been using this for years and it was very reliable. I even paid to have the ads removed to support the dev. Since the start of 2022 it has been completed off with the arrival times. I've messaged the dev and they are even responding. I have to migrate over to the official app now. This app is completely useless for me now.
A tiempo donde quiere que voy
Gracias a que veo esta aplicación siempre llego a tiempo a mi trabajo o a cualquier lugar que deceo
It doesn’t do anything??????
What is it supposed to do?? I can’t even pin one of my stops?????? 😴
ACCURATE TIME ESTIMATES FOR BUS ARRIVAL
Previously, I was using NextBus app to plan my trips and to get around Los Angeles. Eventually, the NextBus app was updated. It became useless. I then searched for other apps and found METRO app. METRO app is excellent in so many ways. The layout and functionality of the app works well. So, I deleted the NextBus app from my iPhone
Not iOS 13.0 Compatible
Never updated. Does not show up in iOS 13.0 Setting
This app is a lifesaver!!
I’ve been using this app for about three months now and I don’t know how I got along without it before.
Utterly unreliable
This app purports to track the actual buses. It does not. It “tracks” where the buses are supposed to be, not where they are. I don’t think MTA has gps on its buses. And if they do, they’re too embarrassed to share because it will reveals how fundamentally deplorable this bus system truly is. MTA causes me to be late almost every day. The fact of MTA is an argument against public transportation. It’s a total shame.
Very accurate
Works perfectly and is 95% accurate I love it and is way more accurate than google maps I use both though.
The worst
Don’t pretend to know times...admit when your site has no idea. So frustrating
