gothere.sg App Reviews

Gets worse and worse with each revision.

The app is simple, elegant and fast. I use it regularly and always get where I am going. It is a model for other cities!

This app is super helpful! However I revert back to google when I need to walk somewhere- please add walking!

for any one who uses public transport in Singapore. It pays for itself many times over the first to you take a bus or train rather than a taxi. Well done, thanks!

A nice idea badly implemented. The app crashes on every use of a real trip and when location tracking is enabled, your battery charge falls like a stone. The routing UI is different to maps. Hard to say if thats good or bad as it crashes all the time so I cant really compare the two experiences fairly.

I love this app. I love all the different ways I can get to my destination. My only request if I could change something is for the app to give me more than one way to get there via public transport. For someone like me who relies in buses, MRT and taxi, this is perfect.

This is an awesome app. I use it daily!! It is very reliable!

Nothing appears after searching for directions. Have to scroll around just to find the map. Family sharing disabled for some reason. Update for iPhone 6 badly needed to

Generally okay but needs an update for the new iPhones. Interface looks clunky on the larger screens. Also, being able to get back to the original screen for a new search with one tap would be great. I dont need to see a week old search when I open the app and then keep tapping the back button repeatedly to enter a new search. Search suggestions are also too limited.

App keeps closing and changing my start and end destinations, making it impossible for me to get directions!

Pls get it fixed.

I bought this the day after it was mentioned on iMerlion as the developers are comitted into making and improving the app, much more than the web counterpart. Mainly because of the bus routing features and it can understand more locations than the default Maps app. However I have several issues with it. The map is outdated or not as complete as the default Map app. Some buildings could not be found, like SIM for example. When you try to zoom in and drags along the map for browsing, the line of the route gets distorted and no longer stick to the map. It also becomes laggy. (Edit: no such issue now) Also mentioned before is the occasional magnetic interference, although it comes and go bit still is an annoyance. (No such issue now) That being said, it is a good app, nice appealing GUI design and it sure beats the default app especially if you want to travel around in Singapore. I use it a lot when trying to travel from one place to another. Edit 2015-01-24: do not get this. Crashing 100% of the time on my iPhone 6 iOS 8.1.2. They havent been updating it for a long time btw. They need to get their act together. Back to one star.

NOTE: 0 stars for this app. Forced to pick 1 star or it wont let me post a review. Am not one to review apps, but have used this for a month now and can definitively say its not worth downloading, even if its free. 1. Theres no info/service here that adds or builds on existing free transport apps. 2. It doesnt aggregate data from public apps like SBS such that it can be a one stop shop - gothere gives you enough info on bus stops/bus numbers/MRT stations, but you have to use another 1 or 2 apps to look for bus arrival times, for example. Supports point #1. Given the app uses publicly available data (per point #1), hasnt add much value to the data besides present the data in a different but not value added visual (point #2), I wouldve expected that the $3.99 I paid for the app to at least go into some way of verifying walking directions, which brings me to point #3: 3. The most glaring issue with the app is walking directions and times. It assumes the pedestrian is either equipped with a jet pack or can teleport from one point to another, regardless of the presence of buildings, stairs, or othe physical barriers to walking that normal humans cannot penetrate. This has happened to me many times. And if the app had offered something close to the actual directions, I might plan my time differently, or optimise how I want to use different forms of transport. For example, the app said that from the moment I exit the Downtown train at Promenade station, itll take me 1 minute to walk to the bus stop Opp Millenia Tower. The map image shows that the bus stop is right outside where I get off. It took me 10 minutes at least to exit the station, much less find the bus stop (which was not where it was shown). Another example, to walk from the bus stop Tg Katong South to one of the condos at Amber Gardens, the image and timing given assumes you jay walk across a highway entry road, jumping a tall barrier along the way, and walk right through the building walls. I thought it was an anomaly at first, but the walking directions / time estimates have systematically been inaccurate by a wide margin for me to conclude that there was no effort or attempt whatsoever to address this issue. This isnt a $0.99 app, folks. And Ive gotten a lot of value from many a $0.99 app. This is a $3.99 app. I wasnt expecting just basic data aggregation, I was expecting taking the data to another level, possibly eliminating the need for me to access other FREE apps for basic info, and perhaps a pleasant surprise or two. This app is should be free, or someone shouldve at least paid me to test the app for a fee before launching it. In the meantime, very disappointed.

Fix your app

This was one of the most used app which is now least used because of frequent crash and it just does not work well with iOS 8. I strongly advise not to download this app unless they come up with an update

I used to rely on this app every day. Now every time I try to use it its either unresponsive or it crashes. Its a great shame the app isnt being maintained anymore.

This app is good when it works, it usually gives me an "oops no reasonable direction here" when I use the same locations earlier and worked fine.

Crashes all the time. Constantly needs reinstalling. Needs to be fixed.

Crashes immediately on startup on iOS 9. Please fix.

App is unusable because it freezes all the time. Free trial version worked great until you have to pay. Paid version is useless. Fix the app or stop charging people.
