In my opinion, given its terrain, Malta has a great public transport system and we were really grateful for it. Some things to keep in mind: 1. The app does track the buses well in real time. 2. It does not appreciate walking distance well though - use something else 3. If you search the trip up a long time beforehand, REFRESH IT REGULARLY!! 4. Give or take 5 minutes - it won't kill you to be a bit early 5. It is not the app's fault the buses are late in peak season

Slow and buggy. Most of the time it can't load the screen to add a new debit credit card. When it does load it and I add a card, and even though it's been successfully added, I get an error that something went wrong. It takes a long time to load the flex card screen, way too long, probably 30-40 seconds.

The app is fairly good but I found two issues that prevented me from giving 5 stars. - The app can use location to initially plan a route, but it does not continuously show location (eg: while walking to the initial bus stop). Please have app continuously update location (and use a pulsing blue dot, not the small green dot), - The "show buses on map" doesn't seem to work consistently. Change the bus location from a square badge to an icon of a bus 🚌 with the bus route number overlaid on it).
