Transit apps: 1933, Citybus, 巴士預報, MTR Mobile
Why Hong Kong bus times belong in App 1933, Citybus, or 巴士預報 — not Google Maps or Amap. Official links.
Notes dated 2026-09
Google Maps is acceptable for walking and MTR. Bus ETAs are often two trips late, and minibuses get labelled as generic buses. Amap and Baidu are weaker still. Local apps read the operators.
| App | Who | Use it for | Official |

Questions
Is HKeMobility enough on its own?
Fine as a backup. One bus app: 巴士預報 is the least fuss. For that operator’s own fleet, 1933 (KMB/LWB) and Citybus can still be a touch more accurate. Use MTR Mobile for exits.
