Hello all!

Over the past few months I've been working on a little hobby project which has come to be known as Loungebird.

Loungebird is an app that brings the lounges at T5 to your fingertips, providing access to live occupancy data and a whole lot more (and a whole lot more than that planned). I built it because I wanted to be able to quickly and easily figure out which lounge best suited the time I had during my connections, whether it was worth trekking to B Gates or whether to avoid North altogether. The signs that are dotted around the terminal were never where I needed them to be and I was craving a well designed app that gave me instant access whenever I wanted it.

It features:
- A beautiful, customisable design.
- Live streaming of occupancy data directly from the lounges.
- Glanceable Home and Lock Screen widgets.
- With much more on the way...

So with that - I'm delighted to announce that Loungebird is finally ready for Beta testing! It's currently available on iOS/iPadOS (I'm an Apple Platforms engineer by trade, sorry Android users!) with more to come (macOS / watchOS...). You can sign up and access it via TestFlight here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/86myR6st.

As it is a beta I can't promise there won't be any bugs, but I'm constantly adding new features and improvements every week. I'd love for you to join in and really appreciate any feedback and ideas!
