NextStop - Singapore 3.0.0 is finally approved (in under 3 hours)! I never expected to get this much traction on X for this app. I built it 6 years ago, but it barely got any downloads because there are a million bus apps on this tiny island, with older legacy apps like SGNextBus and SingaBus continuing to dominate. That was until last Sunday, when a couple of users emailed me asking if I had any updates planned for iPhone Duo. That really touched me—they had paid for the app in the early days and were still using it after all these years. So, I decided to build what I’ve always wanted to make: a 3D interactive map with 3D buses, buildings, environmental weather effects, Live Activities with push notifications (finally!), and Bus Uncle—a fun, focus-mode idle game where you play as a bus driver, set your phone aside, and let it drive around the island picking up passengers (complete with a leaderboard!). The App Has 2 Tiers: Free Tier: You get everything standard bus apps offer (ad-free), complete with smooth interpolated 3D buses + limited access to Bus Uncle mode. Pro Commuter Tier: Unlocks near real-time Live Activities via push notifications, custom cultural app icons, unlimited Bus Uncle mode, and dynamic weather effects! Please don't be toxic ah—I need to pay server fees to keep the pro features up and running. Version 3.0.1 is already underway with some minor bug fixes, so DM me if you have any feedback or run into any issues. Love and good night! Download link 👇🏻
I think Singapore deserves a tasteful bus app.

Benks sent me the Benks ArmorEdge Air Navigator Case For iPhone 17/18 Pro Max, thinking I would upgrade to the iPhone 18 Pro Max. But I did not get the iPhone 18 Pro Max, as there is really not much change from my iPhone 17 Pro Max. lesterchan.net/blog/2026/10/…
