Save trip with all data and option to reload

Open dktzde opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

Hi, sometimes it's nice - when I plan a longer trip - to save a connection as a favorite with departure time. (I haven't an idea yet, how it could be implemented - maybe the there is the possibility to save "favorite times").

Maybe what you want is to save the trip as it is and not save the search, so you can get back to it later even when you are offline? Alternatively, there's the option to add the trip to your calender which might already address your use-case.

At the moment I use the possibility to add the trip to my calender. But I miss an option to see if there are any delays. Maybe to would also do s.th. like a link in the calender to Transportr to see if there are any delays.

This should probably implemented right away with Room and then we move all database code to it.

I just want to point out (again) that it might be useful not just to store a single connection but rather all connections within a certain time window. For example "all connections between the airport and station xyz between 4pm and 6pm".

I always like this feature when internet connectivity is poor, data volume is limited and similar use cases. (Sadly, especially on railways which are not the main lines, e.g. in rural areas, internet access often is still a nightmare). I remember DB navigator had some offline feature which they turned off. But ÖBB Scotty still has it. We can also use it for Germany. The concept, as far as I see, is: to conduct a search query once, collect all connections on a certain trip, and download it as a timetable. Like a printed timetable, just in digital format. Which for me is perfectly fine for 95% of all trips ...

Okay I understand dev resources are limited and other priorities exist. Just wanted to highlight that I still see value of such kind of "offline" scenario :-)
