Moovit- Real-time Transit Info

Sat, 20 Oct 2012 07:20:26 +0000

Moovit public transit app shows you the fastest, least-crowded route, every time based on real-time data. Best of all, it's free and powered by the crowd.

Moovit makes it easy to access real-time public transportation information:

• Live map: Press on stops & stations to see nearby lines. Check schedules & track your next vehicle as it arrives live on the map!

• Trip planner: Search for the fastest, least-crowded routes to your destination, across your favorite transit modes (bus, train, light rail, subway, ferry)

• On the go: Tap the best search result and hit "Navigate" to enjoy step-by-step guidance including walking segments. See your dynamic ETA, crowdsourced reports, and more.

Moovit supports mass transit operators in metro areas across the US (Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York-New Jersey, Philadelphia, Portland, San Francisco, Seattle, Washington DC-Baltimore) and Canada (Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Vancouver).

International locations include: UK (England, Scotland, Wales), Australia (Sydney), Ireland (Dublin), Italy (Rome, Milan, Turin), Spain (Madrid, Barcelona), Brazil (Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro), Israel, and the Netherlands.

How is Moovit "powered by the crowd"?

Moovit is a real cooperative, community-driven project. We start with complete schedule-based public transit information, then add real-time data from operators and users.

Just by riding with Moovit open, you help contribute live data back to the community. You can also send active reports about your ride or station from the report button.

The more people use Moovit, the more real-time data we get about buses, trains, and subways. This data, in turn, provides everybody with better arrival estimates and route plans!

Continuous use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Ok, enough about us -- let's Moovit!

Check out the latest version of Moovit!

1. For all you map-lovers out there, now you can navigate to specific stops right from the map! Click any stop, then click Navigate.

2. And for you search-lovers, now get directions to specific stops and stations directly from the trip planner.

3. See where you've been! See your search history right from the Trip Planner screen, and click to repeat a previous search!

4. We also managed to squash some bugs along the way :)

Happy travels!

Uber is Everyone's Private Driver™. Use the Uber app to request a private car in any city the service is available. The app lets your driver know precisely where to pick you up, and lets you know exactly how long until they arrive. At the end of your ride, the fare is charged to your credit card on file (no need to tip), and you receive a detailed receipt in-app and via email.

Follow @Uber on Twitter at http://twitter.com/uber

We've rebuilt the entire app from the ground up, with a focus on making it more beautiful and intuitive. There are redesigned animations, receipts, and menus but the changes aren’t just superficial. The Uber app is finally as elegant and comfortable as the ride. Welcome to #TheRideAhead.

SpeedView: GPS Speedometer

Sun, 21 Mar 2010 01:10:46 +0000

SpeedView is an advanced speedometer application that uses the phone's built-in GPS system to show your current, maximum and average speed, as well as the direction, total distance, and time traveled. Suitable for running, car driving, biking, or hiking.

• High accuracy
GPS-based speedometer that is more accurate than the one in your car.

• Linear compass
Shows your current direction of travel. A compass mode is also available.

• HUD mode
Mirrors the numbers so you can place your phone on your car's dashboard and see the speed reflected in the front glass. You can check out this video to see how it works: http://youtu.be/rzda7CQ-ZAU

• Speed graph
Displays a graph chart covering the last several minutes.

• Speed warning
You can set the speed limits for three different types of roads so that when you go too fast a visual alert or sound will notify you.

• Display units
Supports units such as miles, kilometers, and nautical miles.

• GPX track export
Enables you to save your current track to the SD card or email it to someone. The GPX format is supported by Google Earth and many other programs: http://www.topografix.com/gpx_resources.asp

• Background mode
You can minimize the program and keep it running in the background. It will work as usual and even notify you when you exceed the speed limit.

Please note that the accuracy of GPS measurements is affected by a number of factors including atmospheric conditions, obstructions and the visibility of satellites.

NOTE: This version is ad-supported. A paid version without ads and more features is also available.

If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them on our blog: http://blog.codesector.com/

Mobile requirements:

To improve app performance, turn on your GPS (takes a few seconds to connect to satellites) and also you mobile network, which helps us find your location when GPS is not available. We use Google Maps to show the locations, but accuracy may be an error from Google API, Waze or Foursquare.

✔ English: contato@easytaxi.com.br
✔ Portuguese: contato@easytaxi.com.br
✔ Spanish: info@easytaxi.com.mx
✔ Korean: contact@easytaxi.co.kr

Current Partners:
Our current partners include leading companies within their sector: Skol Beats (partner in "don´t drink and drive" campaigns), Catraca Livre (Gilberto Dimenstein), Grubster (cross-marketing), Disk Cook (cross-marketing), and Payleven (developer of credit card payment system - available soon). Please contact us if you have any business proposals or enquiries.

Competitors:
There are other apps related to taxis in the transportation category. The ministry of transport developed Taxi aqui in 2011, but has not updated it since. Recently created apps such as taxiaqui, waytaxi and taxija do not have a sizeable taxi fleet. Others such as taxi beat and 99taxis do not have a scalable methodology for taxi selection, while safer charges a fixed monthly fee from taxi drivers. The resolve ai app outsources its taxis from radio taxis. In other words, Easy Taxi offers the best service to passengers and taxi drivers.
