We are excited to announce that Locomatix 1.2 for iPhone has been released. The new version includes:
Twitter - This functionality can be accessed from the Locomatix home screen icon called ‘Nearby Tweets’. It allows the users to view nearby public tweets. They can customize the list view of tweets by sorting them on the basis of name, distance and time and at the same time also control the number of tweets to be displayed. They can also block the tweets from an unwanted user and unblock them later if needed. Additionally, the users can post their own tweets tagged with their current location.
Improved user interface for Metros – The new version has an enhanced interface for displaying predicted bus arrival times. In case the GPS data feed for a particular metro bus system is temporarily not available, the users will be notified and provided an option to go to the web page that has the regular bus schedule.

In order to do so, you need to send invitations. If you want to invite friends, go to friends icon on the home screen and click the “+” on the top right corner. There are several ways to invite your friends. You could use your friends’ email address, your iPhone address book, existing Locomatix users list, your Facebook friends or use your Gmail. Yahoo, Hotmail. AOL, Mobile Me or LinkedIn contacts.
To invite your friends from the existing Locomatix users list, enter part of the name or the full email address and tap on search. The search will return a list of users and you can select the user(s) you want to invite and then tap invite. It will send them an invitation and they will be able to see their invitation instantly on their iPhone if they are already registered users of Locomatix. When you login and if you have a pending invitation, you will see a badge on the invitations icon in your home screen. Tap the invitations group to respond to the invitations.
You can choose Accept or Ignore. If you ignore an invitation request you will never be able to see that request again. Once you tap accept, you should be able to see the location of your friend. If they are nearby you will get an alert and you will be able to see the friend’s location on the map.
If you invite the non-Locomatix users, then they will receive an email giving the details of downloading the application and signing up. Once they are registered they will be able to see the similar badge on the invitations icon.
