The ALSA app is rubbish

Tried to use the ALSA app for Android a couple of weeks ago. It was absolutely USELESS. Several buses which I knew full well existed from looking on the main website were nowhere to be seen. The main website alsa.es also claims to be 'mobile friendly'. It does not function at all in the browser on my Android phone.

I took the old fashioned method of going to the bus station and asking for the bus times. The ladies behind the desk were dismissive of the app. They said on it 'no hay nada' !

I don't know how it is on iPhone, but if you have an Android phone, find out your bus times in advance from a desktop computer.

I have used the Renfe app on iPhone quite a few times, and it has always worked well.
 
The worst thing about the ALSA app it that it appears quite functional. Just the small matter that the buses aren't on it!
