Great app when it works, but it currently doesn’t. The Trax schedule changed recently but this app still shows the old times, so it’s worse than useless (showing up for a train 2 minutes after it left is the worst!). Also the train location tracker function isn’t working either. This app worked well for me for a couple months but now I’ve deleted it from my phone. I’ll have to just use the UTA website for the Trax schedule.
This use to be my top choice for tracking buses. Some routes will not show all the buses on that route. I’m mainly referring to route 205. It shows the buses out of Central Garage. Does not show any buses from Meadowbrook Garage. Please fix so I can fix my rating!!
Having used this app on Android, I’m really disappointed in this IOS version. The pop-up ads make the unpaid version almost unusable. I paid to get rid of the ads and hoped the paid version would have more functionality but all I got for paying was just no ads. Not being able to save specific routes as favorites requires you to go thru a complete search setup every time you need to check a schedule. The schedules seem to be current and updated just takes some key strokes to get them, something you only have to do once on the Android version. I will adjust my rating if the app improves but, I’m not optimistic that will happen when I look at the update history. Looks like the developer has stopped trying to improve this app and I see no way to make contact with them to offer suggestions.
”Update”1/22/20 Working again! Hurray! App will not load tracker info anymore! When I click on the route it just shows a continuously loading icon but never loads the tracker page. Please fix ASAP! “Original review “ Really like using this app! Occasionally it does a map update or something, and the blue route and stops on the map disappear. Hope they can fix this. Also, could the feature to change the countdown time between train location updates be added? I saw it on the Android version and thought it would be nice to have on this version. Again I really love using this app and hope it continues to be improved! Thanks!
I was thinking this IOS version would be the same as the Android version. I WAS WRONG. Unlike the Android version, you can’t pull up a schedule between specific stops on specific dates then save that “run” for future quick reference. You have to go thru the entire process of selecting specific stops and dates every time you need to check a schedule. The Android version is great BUT, THIS VERSION IS NOT WORTH PAYING FOR. The way this app presents ads on the unpaid version makes it almost unusable. Since the maker of this app has offered no response to this or other reviews, I have to assume he no longer cares about improving it so I have lowered my rating from 2 stars to 1.
Transit Tracker - UTA allows riders to take advantage of the Utah Transit Authority's vehicle monitoring and stop finding services. Transit Tracker - UTA also includes the ability to download route schedules. Please send me an email if you find a problem or if you have any comments or suggestions. TRACKING UTA's buses and trains report their locations every 10 seconds. TRAX and FrontRunner route numbers: Blue line - 701 Red line - 703 Green line - 704 FrontRunner - 750 - Put in a route number and see all vehicles on that route, put in a stop number to see all buses serving that stop, or put in an individual vehicle number (printed inside and on the back of UTA buses). ROUTE SCHEDULES - You can request a route schedule for any UTA route by entering its number. Schedules can be viewed as origin/destination tables or on a map. On the map, see when the next bus/train is scheduled to arrive by tapping on a stop. See all times for that stop by tapping on the info window that appears.
