OpenStop v0.8.3

New Year - New Version 🎆

What's Changed

We switched to App Links (Android) and Universal Links (iOS) for our login process which provides an even higher security than the previously used custom callback URL scheme. We had to change the iOS app id in order to make this work, which is why users have to manually uninstall the old OpenStop version (now called OpenStop [deprecated]) and install the new version.

UI/UX:

• Improve stop loading duration by reducing stop area loading cell size (#293)
  You may now see the animated magnifier more frequently, but for a much shorter period of time.
• Implement stop watch for durations input (seconds only) (#130)
• Add combined foot- & cycle path crossing map feature (#300)
• Separate footways into multiple map features (#298)
• Update duration input style (#301)

Questions:

• Fix duplicate speech output question (#289)
• Update conditions for questions about surfaces

Localization:

• Update existing localizations
