iPhone 6/6 Plus support

All this requires is rebuilding with newer cordova-ios. I did so in a branch but cannot push a branch and create a PR for your review.

Hm...this doesn't work for you? It works fine on my 6. Just about to put up a new version for iOS9, but I don't have splash issues, do you?

first picture is app store version on my device, second picture is running in iPhone 6 plus simulator after following the instructions in that stack overflow response

ah, you need an api key from WMATA, see readme on this repo. it's in config.js

[j-ro]

or, rather, you put your api key in config.js, but you'll need one

i know that would resolve the alert, but I'm referring to optimizing the app for bigger sized devices. take a look at the status bar to see size difference, etc

[j-ro]

ah, gotcha -- this is intentional on my part, at least for now, but certainly a good improvement. No real need to update cordova to do it I don't think though, it's all html/javascript/css, so some new styles/media queries will probably do you nicely.

the app actually handles itself fine: elements are laid out by percentage spacing, so they expand nicely, and the UI doesn't have any hanging elements that need to be laid out differently. The problem is that until the app has the right config options set, the device will render it in a blown-up, pixelated state in order to render it as-is, as it assumes the app hasn't been prepped for the bigger device. Once those config options are set (which 3.9.2 of cordova-ios does) everything works as expected and no css changes are required.

Hm...interesting. I don't see this on my actual device, which is odd. The simulator does it pixel accurate, so it's double size, but on devices it renders correctly I think.

Anyway, if you want to update cordova, cool. That's kind of a headache sometimes, due to dependencies and plugins (mapkit is custom, so you can't update that, for example). But grab the latest (I just pushed a new version) and do a PR?

and, I think you should be able to fork then PR, or fork, then branch, then merge to your forked master, then PR, right?
