MyTurtle: buttons

13 March 2013

Hi,

I’ll take this opportunity to give a quick work of explanation about the buttons you see in MyTurtle Panel.

From left to right:

1. Message
2. Clock (blue = enabled)
3. Screen power (blue = turned on)
4. Reload

Message allows you to put a short message, full screen, on your FlatTurtle. This message will exist for a short time (about 30 seconds). After that, the normal information will be displayed again.
By the way, if you want a more permanent solution, take a look at the “Footer” option, and select “Message”. This will put a permanent message at the bottom on your FlatTurtle.

After being unavailable for a little while, we’re happy to announce “walking times” are back!

The walking times are calculated directly from your location within the MyTurtle panel.

We have also rewritten the backend for this, which causes the walking times to be calculated just once, when the Turtle is created, and not every time MyTurtle is started (every morning). This reduces load drastically.

Finding a suitable parking spot can be hard. Why not use public transport more often?

Traffic maps Turtle

12 February 2013

There is currently an issue with correctly updating the traffic map.

We’ve escalated this issue to our partners and are looking for solutions.

Effect:

  • Traffic Map is inconsistently updated
  • A memory issue causes the screen to restart at unscheduled times, sometimes several times per day (this looks like a black, white or grey window, for about 5 seconds)

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this causes. We can temporarily disable the Traffic Turtle for you (drop us a line at help@FlatTurtle.com).
