The iPhone port is now, in the most literal sense, usable.

Looks like extensibility in ios8 will let me make a dashboard thing for the app, and then maybe I can set an alarm that redirects people to the app independently, and sorta pretend like the two things are related. Smoke and mirrors, the world isn't real.

Ok, so I've figured out how to do widgets, and done all the annoying technical parts. Now it's just UI and polish before that works. Last thing before solid alpha support is the alarm when your bus/train comes.

Widget will now track one, count em, one reminder until it gets to zero, then it goes away. I need to also create a reminder alarm so that the widget looks like it's doing things. The problem is on IOS it's like a totally separate app with constraints, and it doesn't run if you're not looking at it. I need to, therefore, make a separate audible alarm code and synchronize everything so it doesn't suck.

Reminder alarm is working, widget still only displays one, and won't install on actual device for some reason.
