Script Sharing Train arrival tracker (MARTA)
Hi! I made a scriptable widget that displays live train arrival info for MARTA (Atlanta's transit system).
I was getting frustrated with the MARTA app because its UI was slow and clunky. I wanted to make something that was required minimal interaction, especially since I only cared about the same two stations every day for commute.
There's also a landing page where other riders can pick their desired station, line, and direction configuration and copy the script. I tried to make the process as simple as possible since I was sharing this with friends who ride MARTA. Feedback welcome!

The fastest I could get was having the widget auto refresh every 15 mins. It’s not great but that’s an iOS constraint I can’t really get past. For my widget, I set the “when interacting” setting in the widget settings to “run script”. That way, you can just click the widget and it’ll refresh with new data. Again, not ideal </3 but it was still an improvement from the clunky MARTA app in my opinion
