Version History
Android:
v1.31: Data refresh — GOBLIN re-done, Lea Valley (services out of Liverpool str.) done.
Revamped the ‘direction’ query. Some stations (spec Canning Town DLR) have more than 2 possible directions. It’s now a listView.
v1.3: Changed around a few things. Stations are now better integrated across the app, and they’re all based on National Public Transport Access Nodes (NAPTAN) data, so you shouldn’t have any issues with stations appearing in one place but not the other. This was necessary because if I ever manage to get around to doing an offline or online journey planner this is a requirement. The down-side of this is that a few stations had to be renamed and re-structured (specifically Paddington, Hammersmith and a few others where NAPTAN database classifies stations differently from how humans normally do it.). I tried to amend the code so your existing favourites convert okay to the new system but you may find one or two of your favs gone (unlikely but not impossible) — also in the unlikely case you end up with weird fav migrated from the old version, there’s a button now to obliviate them.
I’ve added in the missing tube stations. The only one station still missing is Metropolitan @ Willesden Green but given that’s a very special thing I’m not adding it in as ML trains basically never ever stop there.
v1.2: Visual update — the app now looks less dreadful 😉 — also a code updates to make sure it scales okay on current phones, SDK compatibility updates, etc. Added permission to read files/data. This is req’d because the app’s data files are held locally in SQLite files and as such the read this data and/or update your favourites this permission is necessary.
Hopefully removed a bug relating to issues when closing the app using the Home button and then reopening. Let me know if you’re still getting them. (also…Added a Contact email to the About section)
