Disappointing they can't even offer a watered down version to suit passengers using that type of phone. Obviously ANE and Nexus can offer an alternative of sorts.
I will continue using the multi-modal, multi-operator, multi-country 'Moovit' app. Realtime tracking and not just limited to GNE.
Especially handy when in other parts of the country and/or world.

8322 looking poorly and towed away from Park Lane, earlier.
And I've finally worked out the engine noise of a stationary B9 ,(currently on the 56):

(18 Jan 2018, 3:00 pm)Andreos1 Even if they had something for non-apple/android users, it would be a start.
Nexus and ANE can cobble something together. Shame GNE haven't.
Regardless of how easy/difficult it is to pull something together for Windows users, there will still be a significant portion of their customer base who dont have a smartphone and/or aren't iphone/android sheep.

The Crusader mercs getting a rebrand? 5321 seems to have had an update to the branding with a different style tagline like the 49 Streetlites and the rear boot looks different too.
(18 Jan 2018, 4:42 pm)JP6004 Same as 5305, you can see the pic of it in the news

Much less crowded than the version being replaced.

(19 Jan 2018, 2:32 pm)Dan All of the existing Crusaders have had their branding modified over the last two nights. 5307 is another grey Citaro to return from refurbishment today, along with 5337 in fleet livery.
Instead of returning to Deptford as planned, 5305 has transferred to Riverside ahead of next weekend's service changes. 5307 should return to Deptford, but it may transfer to Riverside too.

(20 Jan 2018, 9:51 am)Dan Go North East has received this vehicle on long-term loan, serving as a replacement vehicle for fire-damaged Optare Versa 8303 (which has now been sold to, and collected by, Alpha Recovery for scrap).
It will be treated like one of Go North East's own vehicles for the duration of its stay - being fitted with the standard fleet livery vinyls having been painted into the base livery prior to delivery, advert frames, and vandal screen. It features a full front colour Hanover LED display.
As such, 9086 should have now been returned to Optare off-loan.

If the B9TL's that are coming from London were to replace the remaining Streetlites on the Red Kite, would there be enough streetlites to cover the PVR of the Green Arrow, thus allowing the withdrawal of some older Solars

9085 has been pulled from operating on X21 for the rest of the day and be used as a driver taxi as the driver that was going to use it had to use 6304 which had just arrived from Newcastle, might have been the destination display as the previous driver who came in was fiddling around with it for about 5 minutes before going to the driver canteen. Wanted to have a ride on it back to Newcastle as well to compare to The Castles Express Streetdecks .

6332 is blue: https://flic.kr/p/23CXKuk
Probably safe to assume that it is for a promotional livery of some sort.
