FerroMaps

The map is the big change in this build. Please spend a few minutes just moving it around before anything else. 1. THE MAP — panning and zooming Drag and zoom the map quickly, in central London and out in the suburbs. It should stay smooth. Before this build it could show up to 1,600 pins at once; it now shows a few dozen to a few hundred. → Tell us if it stutters, freezes, or pins flicker in and out. 2. FLIGHTS ARE NOW GROUPED Arrivals are one pin per terminal per hour, named like "Heathrow – T5 · 14 arrivals" instead of a separate pin per flight. → Check the arrival count and times look right when you tap one. 3. ONLY THE NEXT FOUR HOURS The map shows what is happening now or starting within four hours, rather than everything happening today. → Tell us if something you expected to see is missing. 4. EIGHT NEW KINDS OF PLACE Hotels, pubs, universities, hospitals, nightclubs, sports venues, shopping centres and boosted trains. Venues and football have been removed. → Check pins, colours and detail screens look right, in light AND dark mode. → Hospitals, universities, stations and shopping centres come from a built-in weekly schedule, so they appear around their own opening and shift times. 5. FILTERS - All fourteen categories now fit on screen at once, four across, no scrolling. - The red numbers on each category should match what the map shows, and should change the moment you tap "Live now" or "Upcoming". - "Live now" = the window has opened and the counter is running. "Upcoming" = it has not started yet. - The work window slider has been removed. → Tell us if a number disagrees with the map, or if a category is cut off. 6. MILES OR KILOMETRES Settings → Distance Unit. Miles is the default. → Check every screen follows it: map cards, explore list, saved, detail sheets. 7. THE FERRO BUTTON It now only offers hotspots you can reach in about ten minutes. → Tell us if it suggests somewhere that is obviously too far. 8. SAVED HOTSPOTS Save a hotspot and leave the app closed. You should get a notification about ten minutes before it opens. → Settings → Saved notifications should switch this off properly. 9. ALERTS Hotspot alerts are limited to 5 a day, with at least 45 minutes between them. → Tell us if you get more than that, or two about the same place. KNOWN / EXPECTED - Crowd numbers on some places are estimates and still being tuned. Tell us if one looks obviously wrong. - Some hotspots will disappear from the map when the app decides nobody there needs a ride. That is deliberate.
