PDX Bus version 5 0 is ready!
PDX Bus version 5 0 is ready!
PDX Bus version 5.0 is now ready. Lots of new improvements (mostly trip planner stuff) plus MAX colors, searching for stops and new colors.
Here is a list of what Ive been up to:
- Trips can now be bookmarked and then re-planned with a single touch. Check out the bookmark icon in the toolbar on the trip screen. Tip: bookmark a trip from the Current Location to your home and call it "Take me home!"
- The Trip planner user interface has a new more intuitive flow, and the map has a previous/next button to step through the trip.
- Trips are automatically saved to a new "Recent Trips" screen and can be viewed later without a network connection.
- Trips can be texted to other cell phone users directly from inside PDX Bus (requires an iPhone with iOS 4.0).
- Trips can be added as events to the calendar (iOS 4.0 required).
- Trips planned using the GPS now show the locations name instead of Current Location.
- Added Search rail stations screen.
- Rail arrivals include a colored circle to indicate the line.
- Stops can be sorted alphabetically.
- Recent stops now have their own screen.
- Added up/down arrows to the rider alerts and fixed fonts sizes.
- Settings now update instantly in iOS4; added Color Themes and made it blue by default.
