Keep missing your bus stop? Get a nudge before it rolls by.

A timer cannot read the traffic

A timer works only if the ride takes roughly as long as you guessed. A jam, a clear road or a longer wait at one stop can throw it off. That is a shaky way to protect a good bus nap.

The same problem crops up on an unfamiliar route. You may be wide awake and still miss the stop because the road names mean nothing yet.

Set an alight reminder in BusSing

Open your destination bus stop and its info menu, then choose Remind to alight. BusSing confirms when the reminder is active and marks the area around the stop on the map.

Check that you picked the correct stop and allowed the permissions the reminder requests. Make sure notification and Focus settings let the alert through. Try it while awake before relying on it during a nap.

Check notification help and contact support

Use it when the route is easy to lose track of

Alight reminders earn their seat on long rides, late trips and routes you rarely take. They are also useful when you are travelling somewhere new and do not know the landmarks near your stop.

Confirm the destination and service direction before boarding. A missed notification or poor location signal can affect a reminder. Keep an eye on the route as you approach your stop.
