Before I drive a new route I study the stops and the map to help lessen the surprises. It's especially helpful when I'm driving in the dark and rain and you can't see the stops. If only riders would use a light... <br /><br />I also use it when I need to catch a bus on the road to change drivers. And I use TriMet frequently as a rider so use it to plan my trips and find arrival times. It Always Works Flawlessly for me. Thank You!<br /><br />One thing I'd like to see on the map would be a blue line along the whole route, like Google Maps uses. I don't know how difficult this would be for you to do, but it would be helpful to me.<br /><br />Once again, Thanks for providing this service to our community!American Patriothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11874849546562977432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-74876580036827783352011-06-08T23:16:18.569-07:002011-06-08T23:16:18.569-07:00DeconstructingCory - yup, I found that too.

Is there any way to fix this? <br />Keep up the good work!DeconstructingCoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953181839238326455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-29233949800184163592011-02-27T14:26:51.880-08:002011-02-27T14:26:51.880-08:00Chris - I will still keep that option!Chris - I will still keep that option!Teleportaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141754614900007064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-28741449783106411462011-02-27T14:10:26.281-08:002011-02-27T14:10:26.281-08:00Note that there is a use case for reloading the sa...Note that there is a use case for reloading the same stop. I hope that option doesn't go away. I often load a stop before I leave home, go run some errands, and keep checking back to see when I have to catch the bus.Chris Shafferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04501135936044133702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-23739836684477518422011-02-26T21:38:28.251-08:002011-02-26T21:38:28.251-08:00Mike - several people have asked for something lik...Mike - several people have asked for something like this, so after your request I was inspired to do something. I have worked out a solution that I hope will be in the next release. Each bookmark will have an option to autoload on certain a days of the week, either in the morning or afternoon. I think this will do the trick!Teleportaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141754614900007064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-90231368848159386822011-02-22T22:11:52.454-08:002011-02-22T22:11:52.454-08:00When I go to work in the morning I leave from one ...When I go to work in the morning I leave from one stop. When I go home in the evening I leave from a different stop. I almost always use Stop A in the morning, Stop B in the evening. <br /><br />But when I open the PDX Bus app, it refreshes with the last stop I used. I'm at Stop B to go home, open PDX Bus, and am presented with arrivals at Stop A. Most people don't use the same stop twice in a row; they use a go-to-work stop then, a few hours later, a go-home stop.<br /><br />Can you make a morning stop and an evening stop, or have the GPS load times from the nearest bookmarked stop?Mike Kesslerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13893916451481451448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-39546291451654226742011-01-26T07:39:18.199-08:002011-01-26T07:39:18.199-08:00Kyle - I can look into customizing the buttons, th...Kyle - I can look into customizing the buttons, the text is a little small.Teleportaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141754614900007064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-13563722584703807342011-01-24T22:38:15.300-08:002011-01-24T22:38:15.300-08:00On the new locate stop page can you make the butto...On the new locate stop page can you make the button's fonts bigger or a higher contrast like a black backgoundUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14750555382871726640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108529826546043302.post-12510295041335814612011-01-20T18:12:58.055-08:002011-01-20T18:12:58.055-08:00:-) thanks.
