Version 11.1 is now available!

Thanks to all the public beta testers, finally we have full Siri integration available to all!  Underneath the hood, the code is also more modern and easier to maintain...




11.1 (January 2019)
  • iOS 12 Siri Shortcuts: Use the "Add this stop to Siri" menu item to associate a stop with a phrase for Siri, and Siri will say and show all the arrivals for a single stop.
  • iOS 12 Siri Shortcuts: Use the "Add to Siri to launch with bookmark" menu item to associate a bookmark with a phrase for Siri, who will launch PDX Bus and show the bookmark. Siri won't attempt to read all the arrivals in this case, as there could be a lot as each bookmark can have many stops.
  • iOS 12 Siri Shortcuts: Use the "Add to Siri" menu item on the locate screen to set up a phrase to launch the app and locate nearby arrivals, routes or show a map.
  • WatchOS 5 Siri Shortcuts: Support for some Siri shortcuts on the watch app (trip planning is not supported from the watch).
  • WatchOS: Added complications support to launch watch app from a watch face.
  • iOS: Detours are shown for stops without arrivals.
  • All: : Bug fixes; modernized memory management. I found a place that can cause a hang; this was probably the real cause of the issue when getting routes.
  • iOS: Fonts. Now displays the time in larger text when the arrival time is more than an hour away. Uses Verdana where there are changing numbers - this looks better as the numbers are fixed width. Fixed text alignment issues.
  • All: Now displays the day of the week if arrival time is more than 12 hours away, instead of the date.
