Strike? Sneak behind the paywall to unlock premium features!

February 11, 2016 by Administrator

Our premium app is not yet available for sale. When it is, on “Day 1” it will give you dozens of amazing new features.

However, in support of the commuters in the event of an NJT rail strike, we have unlocked 2 premium features.
These will remain available to you for the duration of the strike:
(1) You can now see up to 3 different routes in the Recent Alerts feature of the free Clever Commute app
(2) You now see 7 hours of data in Recent Alerts

How to activate it #1 (#2 is automatic):

Click on the menu in the app
Select Profile
Add a Secondary and Tertiary route
(see purple stars in picture)
Press Update

Note 1: Don’t change your Origin and Destination.
The app itself works at the Route level…so you see info from
fellow passengers “up and down the line”

Note 2: You will only receive push notifications for your Primary route.
