Example - '31 St Helens' and tap search. I usually go for Merseytravel timetables more than Arriva.

If you don't know the number or start/finish points, I've found Merseytravel and TFGM have maps of the areas they serve and close up maps of the bus stations. Find your route and then type it into the search engine. Haven't really looked into other PTE's or councils so can't be sure on them.
Google maps is another resource I use as there are times and routes. It doesn't use too much mobile data as well.

iPhones tend to open pdf files on the web browser rather than downloading them. Android downloads them.

When you are at home using WiFi you can download Google Maps data for cities/areas that you frequently visit so that all the bulk of the data is already on your phone rather than having to download it all every time. It saves data and time.

I think there is also an option for downloading transit information. I know there is on Google Maps in the US, not sure about over in Britain though.
