Questions

All questions

Where does Whenbus get its bus arrival times?

Whenbus reads live arrival times from LTA DataMall, the Land Transport Authority's official public data service. The times are the same ones LTA publishes to the bus stop display panels, so a countdown in the app and a countdown on the pole come from one source.

Do I need to type a bus stop code into Whenbus?

Usually not. Whenbus opens on a map of where you are and lists the stops in view, so the stop you are standing at is normally on the first card. To reach a stop elsewhere on the island, search by name, code, or road in the nearby sheet, or pan the map.

What does Arr mean in a bus arrival time?

Arr means the bus is arriving now and is at or approaching the stop, rather than some number of minutes away. Whenbus prints it as a word instead of a number because it is not a quantity you can count down.

What does the slash mean in Singapore bus arrival times?

A slash means no arrival time is being reported for that slot. It usually means the service has finished for the night, is not running at that hour, or the operator is not currently reporting a position for the next bus.

How do live bus countdowns on the Lock Screen work?

Open a stop, tap Live, pick the buses you want and start. Whenbus puts one Live Activity for that stop on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, counting down every bus you picked. It refreshes by push, so the app does not need to stay open, and it ends on its own once the buses have gone. To stop it early, tap Stop in the app or swipe the banner away.

Does Whenbus have a Home Screen widget?

Yes. The Bus stop widget (Whenbus Pro) shows every bus at a stop you choose with its next arrival times, and a Live button that starts the Lock Screen countdown without opening the app. Whenbus Pro also adds an Apple Watch app and a Control Center and Action Button control that starts Live in one press.
