Hey PH 👋 I built Highball because my kid loves trains and we kept missing them. We live near the tracks in Southern California... we'd walk down, wait, give up, and hear the horn two minutes after we left. Rail agencies publish real-time train positions (GTFS-RT), but that data mostly lives in developer feeds. Highball turns it into something you can use standing trackside — or waiting on a platform: 🚂 Live map of every Amtrak train in the country, plus Metrolink and Caltrain with directional arrows (we infer bearing when feeds don't provide it) ⏱️ Hero countdown to your next train 🔔 Notification when a train is 15 minutes out ⌚ Apple Watch app + Live Activities on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island 📓 One-tap spot log with haptic feedback, badges, and CSV export Decisions I feel strongly about: • $1.99 one-time. No subscription. No ads. • Zero data collection — no accounts, no analytics. The App Store privacy label reads "Data Not Collected." • The whole app is 12.7 MB. Which agency should be next? Tell me and I'll build the list. Ask me anything about GTFS-RT, bearing inference, Live Activities, or designing an app a kid can operate.
