Bus routes?
  • jchenjchen May 2010

    Are there any plans to include the DART bus system schedule? I and several coworkers have been looking for a good DART iPhone app. In fact, if you just add the express routes (200s), I'm sure it would add a lot of value to this app for many people.

  • It's definitely something I've considered, my main concern is the sheer amount of data since there are so many different buses / bus routes. (Right now DARTpal actually has the entire rail schedule bundled with the app). In any case, I figured it was only a matter of time before it was requested, so I've added a feature request for it :).

    Thanks for the feedback!

    There are just ten express routes with only 3-5 stops each way. They are a nice independent subset of the bus system. They don't interact with each other or the rail, so you wouldn't have to deal with any transfers.

    The schedule being bundled with the app is really useful for iPod Touch users (like me) that don't always have wi-fi access. Thanks for that feature!!

  • Nice, I'll take a look and see how difficult it would be to integrate. My goal with the bundled schedules was to make the app useful when there was little or no connectivity (us iPhone users experience outages on AT&T frequently!)

Howdy, Stranger!
