Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

No more guessing when your bus will arrive. Use this app for 24 hour 7 day access for bus movements registered on the Accreditation Manager network. Bus247 finds buses that are closest to your current location and displays them on a map with live updates. You will need to allow your app device to use your current location for this to work. So when asked to 'allow location' you will need to press Allow. ANY bus operator with GPS tracking can put buses on the app for free by contacting www.accreditationmanager.com.au
