This post is in fact an advertisement for my personal project "NextBus for SG" at https://bus.alerts.sg/, which is a location-based service showing Estimated Time of Arrival for buses nearby, and providing alerts when approaching destination.
ETA
No installation is required. When you first open the NextBus for SG website, it shows a map of Singapore with your location at the center and all the bus stops withing certain distance around you.

Approaching Alert
If you are going to an area that you are not familiar with by bus, I bet you would be happy if someone can tell you when to alight. NextBus for SG is exactly what you need.
In the ETA popup, tap on the bus route you'll be boarding. The map will then show all the bus stops along this route. You may also use the Search box to search for the bus route directly.
