Difficult interface to work with on a phone screen. Buggy operation. Nice presentation of info, though.

I really love reading WaPo and was excited to try this app, but it drained my battery like crazy! Please fix this, WaPo! I would love to give your app another shot if you do.

This app looks great but BUSES are also apart of Metro. DC Metro Transit is a better app.
