- During off-hours, stations now show when they open instead of "updated at". - Upcoming departures now appear at end-of-line stations. - Arrival times refresh faster and stay fresher. - Fixed first/last train and open/closed times being off by a day around the early-morning service rollover. - Service alerts now show for every platform at multi-level stations. - The bottom screen edge is reserved for the iOS home swipe, so swiping up no longer expands the card.
