Use Passive Location Provider for closest subway station and more... #39

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Create a background service that listen to location updates from other apps and 
generate the list of closest subway stations (and closest bus stops when 
available) so the list is already available when the user opens the app.

The app is fast enough to load the closest subway stations... so it's not 
useful.
Also, most of the data is available offline now so it's not useful for 
pre-fetching either.
