Metro Attractions

Inspiration

Public transit is AWESOME, but no one knows how to find the awesome STUFF on it. Unless you're 100 years old and have memorized ALL the bus routes.

How it works

The app finds your location, then finds the bus stop nearest you. It then searches along the routes used by that stop to find the attractions that are X minutes distance FROM that stop.

Challenges I ran into
