About the app

Bus Buddy

Bus Buddy allows users to find bus routes to destinations all across the Livermore-Amador Valley. Simply enter a destination and choose a route to see where you need to go and where your bus is.

How it works

The app uses the Google Directions API to find possible routes between the origin and destination addresses. From there it uses the 511.org Open Transit Data API to find the locations of the required buses.
