As some of you may know, apps release a sort of "what's new" file or 
changelog, indicating what's been added or changed in the newest 
version. You can read these by double-tapping on an app in the updates 
tab in the App Store app on your home screen. Some are very short, such 
as "bug fixes and performance improvements." Some are much longer, 
describing specific changes made in the newest version. The Transit app 
just released an update and it's the best "what's new" file I've ever 
read. Here is the text.

What's New in Version 3.10
People have been asking us… “have you gotten a haircut?” Thank you for 
noticing! Flattery will get you everywhere—except if you’re trying to 
get to work. This month, we had a bug that caused the app to forget 
where your work and home addresses were. Thankfully, the bug no longer 
exists! Hopefully your job still does.

Now, as for that new haircut of ours.... perhaps you've noticed that we 
seem more colorful these days? Well, that’s because we went to the salon 
and spruced up our Notifications Center Widget. No longer drab and grey, 
it’s now full of bright, dazzling colors to help you more easily 
identify next departures for your local transit routes. That’s right, 
Tumblr: bus-route inspired hair is 2016’s hottest trend. Just 
remember—you saw it here first.

We've also removed a tap from the trip planning sequence to make your 
trips 0.5s faster to plan. Talk about untapped potential!

Lastly, we added real-time for San Diego buses, Chicago Metra, Staten 
Island railroad, and for Miami Dade buses. We've also added support for 
Anchorage, Alaska as well as Scoot mopeds in the Bay Area. And if you 
live in Chattanooga or Columbus, you can now buy bike share passes & 
unlock your bike inside of Transit App. No more dealing with those 
annoying kiosks. And no more carrying around those conspicuous bolt 
cutters.

That's all for this week! Rate us five stars to unlock the cool side of 
the pillow.
