Feedback from users:

One of our users had a problem understanding the list containing the map points. The list is modified depending on the selected layers. The user pointed out that when a layer is selected, it is not very clear that the list is actually being modified at the same time. Therefore we added labels on the top of the list, which will specify what categories of map points are there in the list. For example, when the Trains and Bus levels are selected, the corresponding labels will appear on top of the list. Thus the user will get the feedback the list has also been modified and will also know what to expect from the list.

We use a prefix to differentiate between different map points like Trains and Bus. We got a suggestion that different colors should be used for different types of map points. In this way they will be more easily differentiable (not implemented).

Our system has the capability to filter map points. Previously we had the idea of the user typing the destination in the mobile phone. Nevertheless, our user pointed out that they do not have any information that they can type in the mobile phone and it will filter out the results. Therefore, we have decided to send a message to the mobile phone right after the connection to the system is established. The message will clearly state that the user is able to either type the destination in the mobile phone, select it from the list or from the map.
