- Fixed VoiceOver issues with segmented controls and buttons. (VoiceOver reads out what is on the display, and for some screens it did not work so well).
- Increased size of 'X' icon to make easier to touch. (There is a Red X icon that can be touched to delete an expired alarm. This was a little too small).
- Caches are more robust. (PDX Bus is able to detect if it crashed. If it did crash it will delete all its short term cached data - this is just in case that data was corrupted. This will stop repeating crashes).
- Added additional alert for alarms that are too long to be accurate in the background. iOS allows apps to run only for 10 mins in the background, after that it cannot check the arrivals any more. This will alert you if you have set an alarm for more that 10 mins.
- Added 'Plan trip from/to here' option on rail station screen. A small overdue feature.
- Improved stability & added new debug options (e.g. you can turn off the caching, as that seems to cause some crashes, and several other fixes).

PDX Bus 6.2 - after all that, what was in it?
PDX Bus 6.2 was an overdue bug fix release. Ironically, the idea was to make it more stable and to fix some issues I had seen in crash reports - it's not a major release and wasn't really worth all this difficulty!

hey as of today (July 20th) my trip planner stopped working, every trip no matter time or location the NO ROUTE FOUND promp shows up. everything else works fine like the Stop Arrivals, and looking up All Routes.
I erased the app and reinstall and still same problem occurs. I have an iPhone 3GS jailbroken If that makes a different. I've had ur app for almost a year without a problem.

Anonymous - that looks like an issue with the server - which is run by TriMet. It seems OK now - can you confirm that it is working now?
The Trimet site's trip planner has the shortest max walking distance as .10 but your app's shortest max walking distance is .5 which is too far for some disabled people. Is there a way to add the shorter distance to the app? Thank you!
Will the app work on windows phone?
No. The app is an iphone app.

Response: Sorry, I have no idea. The transit authority needs to publish the data as a web service and fir GPS to each bus - I have nothing to do with that part. If they don't have it now then you will need to ask for it.
