Google Maps works very well here. I'm not sure if there are any public transportation apps that are better. I haven't taken a bus or subway since moving here a few months ago. I walk a little but mostly take Ubers or taxis. I have a bad knee so can't walk too much but BA is a walkable city.

My App list for Buenos Aires is

Uber (Rideshare)

Didi (Rideshare)

Cabify (Rideshare)

Google Maps

Rappi (Food and store delivery)

PedidosYa (Food delivery)

Definitely great list. I use these everyday. Thanks for posting.
