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").
The listing's verdict capsule now carries white text on muted semantic
fills instead of the neutral secondary tint: Saves #45825E, Costs
#A9635B, Break even #707070, Closest #58789D.
Fixed tones, not translucent tints, because white text on a 15% tint
over a white row measures ~1.8:1. Each tone sits at a relative
luminance of ~0.18 — the band where white clears 4.5:1 AND the pill
still separates ~3:1 from both a white row and the dark card fill — so
one value each works in light and dark without a dynamic colour. The
saturated palette colours cannot carry white text at all: systemGreen
measures 2.2:1, systemRed 3.6:1.
"Save" becomes "Saves", matching the detail sheet and reading as a
statement of the outcome; amounts, symbols, padding, radius and the
shape-follows-line-count rule are unchanged. Saves and Costs share an
84pt minimum width so their trailing edges line up down the list.
The price and its capsule are now one vertically grouped element (5pt),
with the badge keeping the column's full 12pt above, so the row no
longer reads as three equal lines.
Station names cap at three lines with a tail ellipsis: unbounded wrap
let one very long forecourt name set the height of the whole row. 59 of
the 8,073 names in the dump exceed three lines and now ellipsise; the
full name is always in Station Details. Addresses still wrap freely.
The baseline pill moves onto ListingFuelSavingsCapsule so the listing
shows the same soft blue and white text as its siblings, leaving
FuelSavingsCapsule to the detail sheet, which it now alone uses.
Badges keep their tinted styling: they annotate a price rather than
report an outcome.
Verified: 261/261 swift test; Debug simulator and Release device
builds; all four fills and their white text measured from simulator
pixels in both appearances, and the detail sheet's .blue absent from
the listing entirely.
Station and Favourite rows share one capsule, so both now read
"Save / £3.10" and "Costs / £1.20 more" instead of the amount-free
"Saves" / "Costs more". "(approx.)" is appended on its own line when the
journey behind the figure was estimated. Break even carries no figure —
±£0.05 is noise — so it stays a single line unless the qualifier adds one.
- Split `listingCapsuleHeadline()` into a structured `ListingVerdict`
(headline / amount / qualifier) drawn as one Text per line, so where the
capsule breaks is decided by the data rather than by the width the price
column happened to hand it: the figure can never straddle two lines.
- The capsule's shape follows its line count: one line stays a Capsule, two
or more switch to a rounded rect at 8pt, whose corners do not crowd a
taller block the way a pill's semicircular ends do.
- The Key sheet's legend renders the same component with `showsAmount:
false`, so it demonstrates the wording without displaying the placeholder
£1.00 figure it was built from.
- The new words ("Save", "Costs", "(approx.)", "%@ more") go into
Localizable.strings so the copy editor owns them; amounts run through
FuelSavingsFormat.money and the amount line is monospaced.
- VoiceOver keeps the single-line form, since a drawn break is a pause
mid-phrase when spoken.
Tests cover the line structure for all four statuses, the estimated
qualifier and the amount-free legend. Pixel measurement on the simulator
confirms the shape rule: one line measures a radius of h/2 (a pill), two
lines measure 8pt, in both light and dark.
- 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.
The sheet leads with the station name and address inside the card, above the map, then a two-column facts row (fuel price on the left, distance and return on the right, split by a hairline) and the two station actions divided the same way. The Best Value block becomes a tinted card: verdict badge, the two figures the estimate is made of, the working and the total. "How Best Value works" moves to its own row below it, using the shared HowBestValueRow the Key sheet already shows.
Presentation only: every figure still comes from the shared sources (FuelStore.priceText, stationDistanceDisplay, FuelSavingsResult), so the sheet cannot disagree with the listing row, the widget or the Live Activity, and no calculation, ranking or freshness rule changed.
StationDistanceDisplay.returnLabel(unit:) and FuelSavingsFormat.extraTravelDistanceLabel(...) are split out of their caption forms so a surface printing the return or extra-travel figure on its own line takes it from the same place, confidence marker included; their existing output is unchanged, pinned by tests. FuelSavingsSummaryView is deleted - the sheet's card supersedes it and nothing referenced it.
DEBUG-only QA hooks: -qaConfigureSavings configures a Fuel Savings plan (the Best Value card and the Worth the Drive sort are gated on it), -qaDetailBottom scrolls to that card (defaultScrollAnchor is a no-op on a List) and -qaCopyPostcode holds the copied confirmation long enough to screenshot.
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.
Distance confidence
- Every distance surface takes the figure AND its "Approx." marker from one
FuelStore.stationDistanceDisplay call (station rows, detail sheet, widget,
Live Activity, watch, Siri), so a surface can never mark one figure approximate
while showing a routed one. Radius filters and Closest ordering test that same
displayed distance, so no row can read a distance outside the radius that
filtered it (the reported "14.6 mi inside a 10-mile list").
Accurate distances (Settings -> Distances, default off)
- Off: the browse layer serves the straight line, marked Approx., for every row,
so two installs agree to the metre and the app makes no route requests at all.
- On: routed distances for the whole search area, unmarked, served only from a
COMPLETE set anchored within 600 m — a partial fill reverts every row at once
rather than mixing road and straight-line bases.
- Best Value maths sits deliberately outside the toggle: it keeps using measured
road routes and its own confidence marking, so money figures never move with
the switch.
- Fills run only while the toggle is on and the app is frontmost; capacity raised
to 600 stations per pass; completeness tolerates pins Apple Maps has no route
for, which otherwise left an area permanently incomplete and the whole list
stuck on estimates.
Performance (the reported slowdown switching to Closest / launching with it)
- FuelStore.accurateDistancesEnabled was a UserDefaults(suiteName:) read per
call: a synchronous cfprefsd round-trip measured at ~1.9 us, ~200k calls per
Closest sort. Memoised, with the setter keeping it in step.
- Both keyed sorts decorate their keys — one distance per station, carried as an
index instead of copying whole stations into the decorated array — and the
comparison baseline plus per-station journeys now come from ONE pass instead of
two full scans per tab. The Stations tab also reuses its single sorted list for
the count and the TOP badge instead of sorting the country three times.
- Measured on iPhone SE (7,914-station Closest pool): sort 36.6 ms -> 17.1 ms per
list, Cheapest 6 ms, Best Value 11 ms.
- DEBUG probes: FB_PERF list timing, FB_PERF_BENCH toggle-read benchmark, and
FB_DIST_FOCUS now reports the served value, marker and mode (and re-prints when
a fill lands). FB_ACCURATE_DISTANCES / FB_SORT_MODE env forms for devices, where
devicectl eats a leading-dash argument.
Tests: 198, 0 failures. Device and simulator Debug builds green.
Following the sort-segment rename, the rest of the user-facing "Worth the Drive"
copy moves to "Best Value".
- Settings: the toggle is now just "Best Value" (was "Enable Worth the Drive"),
and the narrative footer opens "Best Value estimates fuel cost only, …".
- More info sheet: the section header is "Best Value" (was "Worth the drive?"),
and the section itself is now conditional. `fuelSavings` is nil whenever the
feature is off — `savingsLookup` returns nil when it is not configured — so
the heading is never left dangling over an empty section while the feature is
disabled.
- The unavailable text reads "Best Value unavailable: …".
- Comments and doc comments that named the sort were updated so they match the
UI instead of contradicting it.
Deliberately unchanged: the enum's raw value stays `worthTheDrive`, so stored
sort preferences and widget configs keep decoding, and FuelSavingsStatus keeps
its verdict wording ("Worth the drive" / "Not worth the drive") — that describes
a station's verdict rather than the feature, and is not shown in the UI.
Verified on the simulator: with the feature OFF the more info sheet shows
Address / Distance / Directions and no heading at all; with it ON the sheet
shows the "Best Value" section; Settings reads "Fuel Savings" / "Best Value"
with no "Enable" anywhere. 172 tests, 0 failures.
The two Fuel Savings figures and the in-list fill-up control were text
fields. A typed figure could sit outside the slider's own bounds, so the
control and the number it claimed to show could disagree, and the decimal
pad needed a Done button to escape.
- Settings: "Average fuel economy" and "Typical fill-up" are now sliders
with a read-out ("45 MPG", "£40" / "40 L") in place of the field. The
warning copy reads "Set a realistic..." rather than "Enter...".
- FuelSavingsAdjustmentView (shared by the Stations Worth-the-Drive header
and the Favourites tab) drops its text field and gains the same read-out;
the typed-value machinery and the -focusFillAmount QA hook go with it.
- Slider bounds live in FuelSavingsCalculator (fillAmountSliderRange/Step,
mpgSliderRange/Step) so the Settings control and the in-list control can
never offer different ranges, and the fill-up slider range stays inside
the calculator's validity ceiling (asserted by test).
- Two tests pin those invariants: every slider position is a valid amount,
and both MPG bounds are valid MPG values. 155 tests, 0 failures.
- Comments that described the removed fields were updated; the keyboard
Done-bar plumbing is kept (no numeric field remains in the app, so it can
no longer fire) rather than deleted, so any field added later still has an
escape route.
Verified on the simulator: Settings shows "Average fuel economy / 45 MPG"
with no field, and the Worth-the-Drive fill-up control shows the unit picker
with a "£40" read-out and a slider. The Settings "Typical fill-up" row sits
below the fold on every simulator available here (and synthetic input cannot
scroll it), so those pixels are unverified.
Calculation audit (brief config: 30 MPG imperial, £60 fill-up, baseline
Rontec Shelf 171.9p at 0.4 mi):
- One mile<->kilometre constant pair (kilometresPerMile 1.609344,
metresPerMile 1609.344) replaces the mixed 1609.34 / 0.621371 / 1.60934
used in the savings path. Effect ~2 ppm (invisible), but the conversions
are now auditable in one place.
- New FuelSavingsCalculationAuditTests (20 deterministic tests, no live
MKDirections) pins the brief's three stations - Tesco 170.9p/2.0 mi,
MFG Hare & Hounds 172.9p/2.8 mi, PGG Napoleon 171.9p/2.8 mi - plus
imperial-vs-US gallon, MPG and budget scaling, the break-even tolerance
boundary, the nearer-candidate clamp, route-unavailable, mixed-basis
estimates and display-rounding boundaries.
- Formula unchanged, and verified correct: fixed quantity (budget / baseline
price), pump saving, round-trip extra distance clamped at zero, travel fuel
priced at the candidate station, +/-5p break even, baseline labelled
"Closest station", sorting on the unrounded net saving. The brief's "£0.18"
for Tesco is the rounded 1 dp extra-distance caption (2.02-2.05 mi reads as
"2.0 mi"), not a rounding bug in the money.
UI (uncommitted since d7a0ecb):
- Done bar drawn in the bottom safe area from keyboard notifications:
.toolbar(placement: .keyboard) is device-dependent (present on the 15 Pro,
absent on the SE on the same iOS build).
- Favourite star in the More-info heading, wired to the same fuel-scoped
toggle as the listing rows at all three call sites.
- CHEAPEST/TOP badge moved above the price so it reads as part of it.
- Listing rows carry the real session fill-up amount instead of a hard zero
(the compact banner does not print it today; a future row layout would).
153 tests, 0 failures. Simulator and device builds succeed.
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.
