Tube Deluxe 5.3

Unfortunately it’s not possible to show Overground departures. Technically these come under National Rail and TfL do not publish the departure boards for them.

I am working on obtaining more real time data for Deluxe & other apps, but it will take time & hence I have no idea when more departure data will be available or even possible in some cases.

UPDATE: A new version of Tube Deluxe has been submitted to Apple for approval. Version 5.2 includes the former East London line as part of the Overground.

A few days ago the East London line reopened. This is currently a limited service and fulll services will not be operation until about the 24th May.

An updated version of Tube Deluxe is definitely on the way, however I am not allowed to release the latest version of the map (many stations are even yet to be updated) until after the 24th May when the rest of the East London is opened, completed and operating to standard hours.

Rest assured the app will be updated and it will have the latest offical map. The update will be free for all existing users.

This is an install problem that effects a small number of users. To fix it do the following…

1. Ensure you have the latest OS on your device, plug it in into iTunes and select ‘Check for Update’ on the summary screen.
2. Uninstall the app (hold down the icon until it shakes, hit the ‘x’)
3. Shut down (COMPLETE POWER OFF OF THE DEVICE, not sleep mode)
4. Restart
5. Reinstall the app directly using the ‘App Store’

You will not be charged again as you already own the App. Please note, you will lose any saved favourite departure boards.

If you have further problems let me know malcolm@mbarclay.net Tube Deluxe should not consistently crash.

Use the ‘Plan’ section to obtain a journey plan for a selected From & To Station. The routing engine in Tube Deluxe quickly generates the shortest journey plans (by time). Using the last known line Statuses; Tube Deluxe will plan around part or full line closures for you.  The Itinerary section displays the possible lines you can take for each leg & the direction (towards station) that the train is heading.
