SG Buses (Android) 0.9.7 updated with arrival time in bus route listing

Previous version 0.9.5 released a few hours ago contained a bug that disabled the IRIS SMS function in bus route listing. That was fixed shortly in v 0.9.6. Thanks to the user that reported this (link).

Arrival time in bus route listing has just been added, and posted in v 0.9.7.  I’m not sure if users will find it useful to have the entire listing, but it is interesting to know. Note that the service for arrival time is provided by sbsnextbus. Note that bus arrival times are not available at bus terminals and at certain bus stops (not sure why).

Both the iPhone (version 1.40) and Android (0.9.5) SG Buses have been updated with arrival time using services provided by sbsnextbus (source).

Here are screenshots from both platforms.

SG Buses 0.9.2 available in Android Market

SG Buses for Android is finally complete. I doubt there will be many that care because Android phones are not available here yet. Publishing on the Android Market is really easy. Just upload it, and it’s immediately available, unlike the AppStore.

SG Buses on Android is quite similar to the iPhone version except:

  • Bus schedule is not available yet (simply because I can’t wait to test how I can publish it in Android Market)
  • iris is available if you are a Singtel user. You can send SMS directly by Tapping on the bus stop name

Here are some screenshots of SG Buses for Android

SG Buses on Android soon

SG Buses will be available in Google Android’s phone soon, as soon as I figure out how I can package it for distribution in Android Market. As far as i know, it is still not available to Singapore Developers yet, but I need to look it up more to confirm that.

The screenshots you see below shows the app, but it lacks a search function. I should be able to figure that out before Singtel makes HTC G1 available here. By then, I’m sure local developers can publish their applications in Android Market.

SG ERP Lite 1.01 with fixed rates released

As stated above, the ERP Rates are fixed. Not sure why SG ERP 1.04 isn’t released at the same time. I maybe consider updating data directly from my website so I don’t have to go through the lengthy review process.

MovTrailers 1.1 with improved interface

Now that MovTrailers 1.0 is finally approved, I can afford to spend a little bit more time on this app without worrying that I will be wasting my effort. Spent a few hours time morning after the approval email to make these changes. Just submitted version 1.1 to Apple. These are just minor changes:

  • removed the short delay when users vote for trailers
  • new play trailer icon and vote icon
  • ability to mark a trailer as watched or not watched (button position consistent with that of TubeJunkies)
  • a ‘loading…’ label at the start of the application
  • minor tweaking of the interface to make it nicer

Keep track of the latest Apple Trailers with MovTrailers

Just a few days short of 3 months, MovTrailers finally received Apple’s approval and will be available in AppStore today. It’s a pleasant surprised to received 2 approvals on the same day - TubeJunkies Lite MovTrailers (submitted on the 19th of Jan 08) & MovTrailers (submitted on the 9 Nov 08). I had doubts that this app will ever get approved by Apple even before submission to AppStore, so the first submission was actually completed in 2 hours, thinking that I’ll try my luck.  Before over 3 months period I added a few small features, and kept improving the stability of the app as ‘updates’ by rejecting the binary and reuploading newer versions. An update to MovTrailers will probably be available soon now that I know I will not be wasting my time on an app that might not get approved.

Here’s the description of MovTrailers in AppStore:

MovTrailers is a RSS reader of the latest movie trailers available on the Apple Movie Trailers Website.

FEATURES:

  • Show the latest trailers available
  • Mark a trailer after viewing by fading off the row
  • Show the number of trailers not viewed in the SpringBoard
  • Allows viewers to vote if they are interested, not-interested or undecided about watching the movie after watching the trailer
  • Show voting results

MovTrailers is a free application supported by advertisements.
