How to get premium features

Nearly Departed was briefly sold in the AppStore for a fee - so if you downloaded a very early version, then premium features are available to you for free. Tap “Restore Previous Purchases” to unlock premium features.

If you routinely use iOS accessibility features (VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, or Switch Control), then you can also get premium features for free, because travelling by public transport in the UK is already difficult enough. The app will detect this automatically.

For everyone else, premium feature are available for a small monthly or annual subscription.
