Description
Written by an iPhone developer unsatisfied with both Red Rocket and iTTC, this app might be the one you've been waiting for.
FREE, but requires an Internet connection. (For now!)
Unlike all other apps, this one is guaranteed up-to-date thanks to its JavaScript-injection technique that reformats the official ttc.ca website for your iPhone, with easy access to routes you view most often. Meant specifically for Torontonians, this app works best with an iPhone's paid 3G data subscription, though you can have the same experience over wifi on an iPod Touch. Does not yet have GPS functionality or offline capabilities.
Features:
- Automatically remembers most viewed routes
- Fast route lookup with side index and search
- Offers #ttcu tweets from Twitter for status updates
- Links to the free (streaming) 680News.com traffic report
- Conveniently reformats ttc.ca pages to fit iPhone screens
(Still) planned upgrades (free with ads):
- Offline support, with both official and unofficial TTC data.
- Map & GPS integration like you've never seen before :p
- Viva/YRT Next Bus and other transit services?
