iOS Workflow as Journey Calculator

[Farath]

Hi there,
I just build a Journey Calculator in an iOS app called "Workflow". It's for automating tasks on iOS and quite handsome. Currently I've configured it to be a Today Widget, so I can access it from anywhere on my iPhone or iPad, even if it is locked.
In case your're interested to try it yourself, check it out here:

I hope you find it helpful.

Cheers

I would love to try this. I can't seem to get it to download or work on my phone.

You first have to download the app "workflow " from the App Store. Do you have it installed on your iPhone?

Ok, I was super excited about this, but I just installed Workflow and...


...I've been writing code for 30 years in a variety of languages, and I think I'm pretty good at figuring out software, but with this I'm utterly flummoxed. (By the app itself, not this specific script.) Even the little tutorial when you first install the app stumped me: my phone was not doing anything remotely resembling their instructions.

Am I just getting too old to learn new tricks?

That's odd. I'm sorry you're having so much trouble. Workflow does it's thing on my two devices. I've not yet experienced the behavior you are describing.
Might a restart help?

Is this not malware?

The user has posted questions about the game before, so I think it's a case of good intentions. I haven't had a chance to play with it, however.

Honestly, I would love C7 to do a dice app and journey map calculator app. I'd spend 5-10 on that

I understand why you're cautious.
But no, this is not malware. It's just a script for Workflow. Workflow is an iOS App now owned and developed by Apple itself https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/workflo ... 49334?mt=8 I cannot imagine any way to make maleware out of this, as Workflow defines the framework and therefore Apple is defining the rules.

It' true, I haven't been too active posting in this forum, but I read it daily as an inspiration or for the clarification of RAW for my TOR campaign here in Berlin.

I've played around with the online journey calculator from arcdream for a while, but the interface is not optimal for an iPhone screen. Furthermore it only calculates one leg.
Therefore, and because I wanted to check out Workflows possibilities, I started scripting another journey calculator myself. Now, that I'm done, I'm able to reach it without unlocking my Phone, and I'm able to calculate journeys with more than one leg (up to five) in one process.

Workflow offers the possibility to share scripts and generates unique links for that. That's why the URL looks a bit cryptic. I assumed sharing would then be a breeze, and I'm sorry it doesn't seem to be so. Maybe because I'm not yet too familiar in posting URLs in this forum.

If you are interested, I can post some screenshots (if that's easy to do) maybe later, so you can see, what the calculator is supposed to be doing.

Posting screen shots would be helpful.
