Last year, this app was a game changer for us, reliably sending notifications when the bus was in the set radius. I was especially excited about the new scan notification feature this year! Unfortunately, it stopped working after the first couple of weeks, which was really frustrating. I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling the app, logged back in, and that seemed to do the trick. Since then, it’s been working perfectly again. Overall, it’s a super helpful tool!!!

I think there should be a way or button to notify drivers, if child is not getting on the bus,or sick. Therefore if no prior notification, they could honk if child isn't immediately in sight, before driving off. Think that would be very helpful to everyone.

This app has made my experience with transporting my kids to and from school a logistics fairytale. I just wish the administrators made known to me that it existed in the first place, and found it on my own after doing some research and my daughter missing the morning bus 4 times in a week. But after finding and installing the app, we are all smiles. Love it!

This app works good for us. I like the notification map that shows how far the bus is. Plus it will send emails when your child gets on and off the bus at locations.
