London-centred question!
Which Android app (preferably free, but I'm not ruling out paying for it) would you recommend for bus checking? Next bus at a given stop, bus route, favourite stops, that kind of thing.
I'm fairly new to this "there's an app for that" business, and a bit stressed about phone security. I'm looking for an app that's easy to use, doesn't have too much information overload, ideally no ads.
The TfL website provides all this info, of course, but by the time it loads a page the bus has already come.
Many thanks for any help!

For bus routes I use a paper map: The Greater London Bus Map.

London Travel for pretty much all your London travel needs. Not a pretty UI, though. Free, no hideous permissions as far as I remember.
I also use something like London Bus Checker. I got the full-UK version without ads as the Amazon Free App Of The Day a while back. That link is for the London-Only one, and I think it's ad-supported. Not having used that I don't know how obtrusive the ads are.
It's... quite neat, but I don't know that I'd pay for it.
HTH :-)

(It also has a "how long would it take a rampaging giant green Android robot to get to where you're going" option which I find cute, but YMMV).
HTH!
