Is there an app to plan a Bus route using a bus pass?

Does anyone know of an app or page. Google will tend to take you on NE or rail.

Thanks for your time.

    If it's in London then probably yes. Where are you and where do you want to go?

    There is Traveline
    You can choose to exclude trains etc if you click more options.
    I do find that this can give some very peculiar routings and changes of buses sometimes, but it should give an idea.

    I find citymapper to be brilliant for London and it also covers Manchester & Birmingham in the U.K. as well as a fair few internationally. It works in real time so will warn you when you need to change bus etc., during the journey. You can also send others a link so that they can see where you are with an eta. On top of this, it’s free!

    I should have added that a lot of individual companies have their own apps which obviously only track their own routes but can be excellent.  These often have live times for bus stops and show the positions of buses on maps.  Reading buses' app is here for instance
