Add setting to turn on experimental regions #92

Closed barbeau closed 7 years ago

barbeau commented 7 years ago

Summary:

Right now we only support production regions in OBA Alexa. However, in the iOS and Android apps we have a setting for to enable experimental regions that are new or still have quirks. For example, NYC doesn't provide real-time data in a format that the apps understand, so you can only get schedule data.

These experimental regions can still be useful, though, so Id like to support enabling them via a Setting. For NYC, we'd also need to enable the flag for experimental region in the Regions API - NYC is the region that a user requested.

Steps to reproduce:

Set city to NYC

Expected behavior:

Allow me to enable NYC

Observed behavior:

There is no way to enable NYC.
