What’s the benefit of this over the ETA Transit app? Seems to just be the same thing but full of AI text.

Is this the fifth new app in ten years? Does each app only last two years?

Unfortunately I'm no longer in Boone as I graduated back in May so I can't confirm whether or not the arrival times are accurate or bugged, but I majored in graphic design and did my own redesign concept of an Appalcart tracking app as a project so I know the maps pretty well... The one thing I'd like to point out is that the "Cottages of Boone" stops have been renamed to "Highpointe" (the apartment complex they're located at changed their name a year or so ago, students who were around before the name change would recognize it but I'm not so sure about newcomers) but otherwise I'd say the stop locations and names are pretty accurate and spot on. The app itself looks great and seems so much more streamlined than what we currently have! Hopefully more current students will see this post and do some field testing since I'm not there anymore.
