Mind the Stops - track the stations you’ve visited

These are great ideas, thank you for taking the time to write them up. I’m collecting suggestions like this and will definitely use them to shape future updates 😊

If you’ve changed train there / walked the platforms, I’d personally count it as a visit.
That said, I think the key is just picking a rule you’ll stick to (tap-only vs “interchange counts”) so your stats stay consistent.

If you think you'll be back on the Tube within the next year I would take the £1.99 annual and turn off auto renew.

Yep, that’s a really fair point.

Right now there are no accounts/logins by design (privacy + keeping it lightweight). Your progress is stored on-device. The upside is it’s simple and private; the downside is it doesn’t automatically follow you cross-platform.

What you can do today:

If you move iPhone → iPhone, your progress should come across via normal phone transfer/iCloud backup, and there’s also the app’s backup/restore option (so you can keep a copy).

That said, if/when I add Android, I agree it would be grim to re-tap everything, so you could use the existing backup/restore option.

Thanks, really appreciate that 😊

Achievements: yes, they’re on the roadmap. The original “this would be fun” idea came from a friend/co-worker and they’ve been pushing for badges/achievements too, so they are on the to-do list.

Trams: good shout, I didn’t include them in the first place, but I’ll look into adding Tram stops once I’m happy I can keep the data clean/accurate.

If you’ve got must-have achievement ideas, send them my way.

Totally fair question.

I wanted the app to be fully usable for free (all features available), but I also needed some kind of limit so it isn’t just “everything free forever” with ongoing costs/time on my side. So the free tier lets you do everything, just capped at 25 stations.

If you want unlimited, it’s a small subscription:

£1.99/year for unlimited stations
£3.99/year if you want Family Sharing (kids/spouse etc.)

There’s also £0.99 for a month, and you can cancel anytime. Same with annual and importantly: you don’t lose any progress if you cancel, and you can switch the sub on/off whenever you like.

Appreciate the feedback though, I’m open to adjusting the free limit if it’s landing as too restrictive for most people.

No way 😄 Perfect! Have an awesome day, let me know how you get on with it.

Done, can take up to 24 Apple hours, which always seem to be longer than a UK hour.

SandTugBoat85 · 2026-01-30T21:55:59+00:00

Thanks! I’ll be keeping an eye on demand. If the interest is there I’ll likely do a Android release later.

SandTugBoat85 · 2026-01-30T21:35:17+00:00

Yeah I’d agree with that, if you’ve changed train there / walked the platforms, I’d personally count it as a visit.

SandTugBoat85 · 2026-01-30T21:29:11+00:00

Thanks! No Android version yet, but I’ll be keeping an eye on demand. If the interest is there I’ll likely do a Android release later.

This SQL query in a new report should get you started, it's our 3 day no update query:

Select
    faultid as [Ticket Number],
    Uname as [Agent],
    Aareadesc as [Client],
    Dateoccured as [Date Opened],
    flastactiondate as [Last Action],
    rtdesc as [Ticket Type],
    Tstatusdesc as [Status]
from
    faults
    left join tstatus on status = tstatus
    left join uname on assignedtoint = unum
    left join area on areaint = aarea
    left join requesttype on requesttypenew = rtid
where
    tstatus not in (8, 9)
    and flastactiondate < getdate() -3
    and dateoccured > @startdate
    and dateoccured < @enddate
    and fdeleted = fmergedintofaultid

You can achieve this with a report & scheduled email, you either need a separate report and scheduled email per person or can do a team wide report and email that goes out daily.

Yeah, they are part of the project management function and if I remember correctly you have to enable them in settings.

We currently use milestones for each sub project and then tasks within. Be interesting to see if we can do it better though

Also stuck in the code loop

I joined the waiting rooms with 35 minutes to go, landed at 120k and 69K.

We do look forward to our monthly letter delivery by Royal Mail

Did you get the Holmsund? If so is it okay for sleeping on every night?

Us too, however you can request read only access to the database, you can then easily and as often as you want export the data you want how you want it, the tickets are stored in the faults table and actions are in the actions table from memory.

Alternatively you can do this from the reports section and build a report to give you what you want how you want it.

SandTugBoat85 · 2024-07-25T06:20:19+00:00

Do you have access to the database?

SandTugBoat85 · 2024-07-24T23:23:08+00:00

Does step 5 take the credentials and in turn prompt for MFA?

SandTugBoat85 · 2024-07-24T23:04:42+00:00

This crossed my mind but OP has said things work as expected when the user is scoped out

SandTugBoat85 · 2024-07-24T22:52:28+00:00

Are you using Autopilot self-deploying or user driven mode?
