# Toll Avoider 1.1
Toll Avoider is an iOS app that provides driving directions which avoid the WA-520 toll bridge.
## Requirements
* iOS 4.3 or later
* Xcode 4.5 can run this app using the iPhone 6 Simulator.
* Previous versions of Xcode can run this app in the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 Simulators.
## History
This app was created in about 2 weeks (in Nov 2011) as an experiment to test cross-marketing for the Park Place iOS app. We certainly got a lot of local press coverage at the time:
* [Kiro News] (TV segment)
* [The Seattle Times]
* [CBS Seattle]
* [TechFlash]
* [Geekwire]
This app was posted on the iTunes App Store between Dec 2011 and approximately Nov 2012. It is no longer offered for sale since it is not being maintained.
