I know Transdev and Blackpool Transport use the same ‘template’ app as WOB, but with more features, like a live map (showing what bus is tracking on the service) and journey planning. So I think they’re just adding features to the app they have.

If it is a brand new app though, can’t be worse than Arriva’s flop of an update last year...

It's called white labelling. It'll mean when the app provider does an update it will apply to every operator but there will be the option for operators to turn off features they don't want to use so that customers only see the features they want to make available.

There would also be the option of WOB changing app provider, which would result in a completely different app.
