- Shows the current direction and the time since the bus reported its last known location (typically 30-40 seconds).
- Live Traffic data embedded onto Google maps so you will know if a bus is stuck in a traffic jam.
- Shows the bus route so that you get a clear idea of where the bus is heading.
- Bookmarking your favorite bus routes for convenience and fast access.
- Added ability to recognize the direction of buses directly from the image.
