Charting is not useful #38

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
This is a comment on the implementation of charts, not a bug as such.

The charts aren't very usable, and don't make much sense in most cases.

E.g. in each category you can tap on average, worst, and best and get a 
separate chart for each. But you can't chart worst and best, they're just 
values. Much better would be one chart per category, so for Fuel Economy you 
would get a chart of the economy at each fillup, together with 3 horizontal 
lines on the chart showing the average, worst, and best figures. There could be 
a similar chart for each of the other sections.

These would open by tapping anywhere in the relevant section in the stats.

See the Fuel Log app for a good example. (The downside of Fuel Log is that the 
full version isn't free, and it doesn't have service intervals.)

I'm always looking for ways to improve the charting and will keep this in mind 
for future versions. Unfortunately, I cannot commit to a release date or 
anything, but I will take this into consideration.
