UBC CPSC 210 Project

Android app that lets you find the fastest public transit route to get to the location of another user in Metro Vancouver

How it works

The app queries an API to retrieve the location of other users of the app and report the location of the current user. To find a route to another user, the app queries TransLink's Open API to determine the fastest SkyTrain/bus route.

TODO

This project is not completely finished, here's a list of todos:

• the API for user locations was used for the duration CPSC 210 and then it was taken down. So make a new API
• Allow users to create accounts and add their friends.
• The current app uses its own custom map; switch to Google Maps
• maybe Facebook integration?
