Top and Cheapest were two words for one state: both meant "the lowest price
among the stations on screen", differing only in the candidate set (radius vs
Favourites). Which word a surface used had drifted by device — the phone's
rows said Cheapest while the watch said Top for the identical state. Top is
gone from the enum, the Key legend, the badge and the watch's hand-rolled
label; Cheapest survives because it names the measure and is already the word
the favourites copy uses.
Closest is now a real station label rather than a verdict. StationRecommendationBadge
gains .closest with a total precedence — Best value, then Cheapest, then Closest
— because a row has room for one label and proximity is the weakest claim: a
short drive says nothing about the price, and unlike the other two it reports no
saving at all. The badge sits above the price, where the other two sit. The
closest row's verdict capsule is suppressed: its only word for that state was
"Closest", so printing it below as well would state the same fact twice, three
lines apart. Other rows keep their Saves / Break even / Costs capsules unchanged.
"Closest station" becomes "Closest", read from the single
FuelSavingsResult.baselineHeadline constant so the badge, the verdict and the Key
cannot word it differently. The Key legend renders all three station labels with
the shared StationLabelBadge; the old KeyStationLabelIndicator, which
special-cased the closest station to a wider verdict pill so it read as a
different class of thing from the two above it, is deleted.
One closest icon everywhere. The listing and detail verdict symbols used
location.circle and location.circle.fill for the state the Key taught as
location.north.fill; both now read StationLabelKind.closest.symbol, so the three
surfaces resolve one glyph from one place.
The detail sheet gains the Closest capsule below the map, ordered to match the
Key. Favourites gains the nearest favourite as its Closest, measured on the same
one-way distance its rows print and restricted to favourites with a price for the
active fuel — matching the radius tab, where the closest station is by definition
the savings baseline.
closestStationID flows from the one scaffold baseline the savings lookup already
compares against, so a row's badge and the reference station cannot disagree.
No savings calculation, threshold, ranking, eligibility or station-selection
logic changed.
The Key sheet's detent is now bound rather than fixed, so dragging it up to read
the Station labels section sticks instead of snapping back; a QA launch argument
opens it at full height, since the 0.6 detent puts that section below the fold on
every device. That argument is read unconditionally, unlike the other harness
hooks which are #if DEBUG-gated.
Tests: 278 pass, 9 new — the label precedence ladder across every combination,
capsule order in the sheet, Closest alone, and the retired label pinned absent.
The More info sheet now lists every ranking a station qualifies for, directly under the map and above the price and distance: the same StationLabelBadge the listing rows render, in a flow layout so two or three capsules wrap to a new line rather than truncating at large Dynamic Type.
The rules are not restated. StationRanking defers to StationRecommendationBadge.badge for the Best Value gate, and takes Cheapest and Top as the flags the host list already computed for its own rows, so the sheet cannot award a capsule the row behind it withheld. A host passes one of the two, never both: Stations sends isCheapestInRange, Favourites sends isTopFavourite. No calculation, ranking, eligibility or savings logic changed.
Rename the card heading Best Value to Value breakdown, since the working behind it can end in Costs rather than a saving, and drop the green section tint so the card matches the neutral background used elsewhere in the sheet. The Saves, Break even and Costs capsules and every breakdown row are untouched.
Rename the explanation link to How does FuelBoard calculate value? It names the calculation rather than the feature, of which the Best Value gate is only the last step. The sheet's own title stays short: the full question truncated to 'How does FuelBoard...' as a navigation title at both inline and large display modes, so the row carries the question and the sheet names the topic.
Tests: 269 pass, 5 new covering capsule selection, order and sheet-vs-row agreement on Best Value.
One adaptive tone palette and one shape rule now drive every capsule on
Stations, Favourites, the detail sheet and the Key.
- CapsuleTone: the light/dark palette pairs in one place, resolved through a
UIColor dynamic provider so a List row that re-renders without rebuilding
its body still follows an appearance switch. Every pair clears 4.5:1
foreground-on-background in both appearances (4.96-6.72:1).
- AdaptiveCapsule: capsule at one drawn line, rounded rect at two or more,
radius 8 -> 10, measuring content before padding so insets cannot inflate
the line count.
- Listing verdict capsules move from white-on-muted-solid to the tinted
palette, so Saves, Break even, Costs and Closest station read the same in
the rows and in the detail sheet.
- Best Value is purple, not green: green stays reserved for a financial
saving, which is what the Saves capsule beside it means.
- Price dots standardise to 12pt in the app (widget keeps its own 6pt dot;
PriceRatingDot now takes a diameter so the difference is deliberate).
- Station labels are sentence case with their recommended symbols (medal, tag,
location.north.fill, trophy) and StationLabelKind replaces the Key's
string-literal dispatch, so renaming a label can no longer drop a row.
- Key says "Costs", matching the capsule's own headline (was "Costs more").
- Alerts: drop the alert-type picker and the Best Value alert path, so
proximity alerts always follow the cheapest station. A stored `bestValue`
selection now falls back to cheapest when loaded.
- Key sheet: the price-rating, savings, station-label and favourite wording
comes from `KeySheetContent` in Shared/FuelSavings.swift — a Foundation-only
model with tests that pin the exact meaning of each indicator — and the
sheet is built from that model rather than inline strings.
- BACKLOG: record the plan to restore Best Value proximity alerts behind one
shared evaluator (user-location baseline, a single disclosed qualification
rule, and real/Test alert parity).
- Bump CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION to 29.
Two columns split by a 1pt hairline: identity on the left at a fixed 52%
share so rows line up when scrolling, price and savings on the right,
leading-aligned on one axis with the price dominant. The favourites star
sits under the station logo, freeing the width the pounds-and-pence price
needs to render in full rather than scaled or truncated.
Badges stay tinted rather than filled — BEST VALUE green, CHEAPEST blue,
none for nearest — and the verdict capsule is one shared view across the
listing, the detail sheet and the compact summary, so wording and colour
cannot drift between them.
Best Value's minimum saving moves from Alerts to Settings, Fuel Savings,
beside the fill size and MPG that produce the saving; the Alerts tab reads
it back instead of offering it twice. Its options are now 50p steps to £5
(was 50p/£1/£2/£5), so £2.50 and £3 are reachable, with a test pinning the
step, the ceiling and the store's string round-trip.
The verdict capsule scales to 0.7 before truncating. Measured on a 393pt
screen its copy is handed ~69pt while "Closest station" needs ~90pt, so the
old 0.8 floor could not reach it and rows showed "Closest stati..." instead.
Verified: Debug build clean, swift test 249/249.
The relay's price_updated is the maximum price_last_updated across the grades it maps, so it cannot vouch for the selected grade: stop using it to score, gate or warn about Best Value.
- FuelPriceFreshness is now station-level and display-only: one age per station, fresh/outdated/unknown/invalid, "May be outdated" past 30 days, with future-tolerance and non-finite guards.
- Best Value restores the closest-station-selling-the-selected-fuel baseline and its savings ranking; eligibility gating, eligible-first sorting and the unavailable banner are gone.
- Price age appears in the More info sheet only - no listing-row warnings, no extra banners.
- Copy reverted from "closest eligible station" to "closest station"; stale price-confidence strings removed, "May be outdated" added.
- Dormant per-grade timestamp plumbing removed, and regression tests added for every fuel type, missing/invalid/future stamps and the bundled offline dump.
- Add FuelPriceFreshness: selected-fuel-aware eligibility plus a shared
comparison confidence, so a saving is presented as verified only when
both the candidate and the baseline pass the gate for the fuel on screen.
- Rank against the closest station with an eligible selected-fuel price
instead of the physically closest station, so a single stale neighbour
can no longer invalidate every comparison in the list. Ordinary Closest
sorting still includes every priced station.
- Keep ineligible prices visible, fall back to pump-price order, and label
Best Value unavailable when no comparison qualifies.
- Widget: same baseline and confidence path as the app.
- Tests: stale-closest baseline, alert baseline, eligibility policy,
boundary and missing-timestamp regressions.
Distances (the "Approx. 1.5 mi" report):
- Refuse junk CoreLocation fixes (invalid accuracy, or a coarse >300 m fix
within 3 km of the position already held; a coarse fix in another city is
real travel and is still accepted).
- Resolve ONE display basis per render through FuelStore.distanceDisplayOrigin,
used by rows, radius filter, sorting, savings figures and the Live Activity,
so a stray fix can no longer re-base the list outside the route cache's 600 m
ring while the routed values sit unused in the cache.
- Treat an incomplete route set as a state: retry it after 30 s rather than the
full 10-minute throttle, and repair a stale incomplete flag once every
in-radius station has a route (nothing left to route, flag stuck down).
- Widget extension resolves the same origin for fetch, radius, ordering and
labels, and keeps its own fix in fuelboard.widgetLocation instead of
overwriting the app's GPS fix.
Alerts:
- Best Value as a distinct alert mode on the existing geofence/notification
pipeline, with a persisted threshold; reverts to cheapest when the feature is
unconfigured and is not selectable while disabled.
Diagnostics (DEBUG, gated): FB_DIST_FOCUS now prints FB-DIST-ORIGIN (candidate,
accuracy, anchor, offset, resolved branch, served origin), FB_FAKE_FIX feeds a
synthetic fix through the real guard, FB_STALE_INCOMPLETE forces the stale-flag
state, and the route-fill status is surfaced in Settings behind debug mode.
Optional Fuel Savings feature (off by default): vehicle MPG in UK imperial gallons, fill amount in pounds or litres, persisted through the existing keychain/app-group store. Ranks the WHOLE station pool by estimated net saving (fuel-price saving at each pump minus the extra return-trip driving cost) using MapKit road distances with a straight-line fallback marked (est.).
The closest station with a valid price for the selected fuel is the comparison baseline and is labelled "Closest station"; other rows read "Save £X.XX after travel" / "£X.XX worse off after travel" / "Break even". Labels live in the shared model so they are unit-tested. The TOP badge still marks the cheapest pump price and reads "CHEAPEST" when the list is ranked by net saving.
Road routing now prioritises the Worth-the-Drive candidates plus the baseline and merges cache entries instead of replacing them, so far-out stations get real routes rather than permanent straight-line estimates. Numeric fields gain a Done button above the keypad (decimalPad has no Return key); the fill-up control is hidden unless the feature is configured; Favourites shares one session fill amount with the station list. 131 tests.
