Terminus for Android is publicly available

Hi all! Thanks to all the beta testers who gave feedback and tried out Terminus for Android. I am happy to report it is now live in the Play Store for everyone to download and use! Terminus is a 3rd party MARTA app for tracking buses, trains, getting realtime arrival data, viewing maps, getting directions to stops, and more.

Please let me know what you think!

The iOS app is still available as well. Links are on the website https://rideterminus.app/

The xml produced from
https://itsmarta.com/service_alerts.xml
is used in MARTA's own website and mobile apps, but currently it is malformed. I posted a tweet about it yesterday trying to notify MARTAservice and MARTAtransit, but this has not been fixed in over 24 hours. I know some people here are insiders, and I don't of any other way to point out this technical issue than maybe post it here to have someone on the inside poke the right people.

This error means that the service alerts are not displayed on the website and are completely missing from the on-the-go apps.

To be absolutely clear, there should be a closing ">" after the "<desc" but it is missing.

Disclaimer: I am the dev of Terminus, so I have accounted for this error in my own code and render the alerts correctly, but I would really like the users of MARTA's official website and apps to also see the alerts!
