To allow users to easily let their friends know about Gas Jot.

That when clicked, display alert pop-up provide help / info on the meaning of the form fields.

For example, gallon-price on fuel purchase log is required on the server, but not required on the client.

I.e., leverage preferredFontForTextStyle: on UIFont

Gas Jot currently assumes all vehicles are gasoline-based. Need to add support for diesel-based vehicles. When creating a vehicle, an option will appear to mark the vehicle as being diesel-based. Similarly when creating gas logs, an option will exist to mark it as a diesel purchase (and thus, "Octane" will not be a relevant field).

Add support for the concept of logging a "Trip." Some examples of why this feature would be useful:

• When using your personal vehicle for a business trip, and you need to precisely track your number of miles-driven for expense reimbursement.
• When using your personal vehicle for ride-sharing, and you need to precisely track your mileage for tax-reporting purposes.

Add support for electric vehicles. There should be a way to log a "charging event." I need to research what electric vehicles provide in terms of reported data points. I also need to research if there's a way to know how much money a charging-event costs.

On the home screen, add a “I Need Gas” button, that when pressed, gives list of gas stations within 5 km radius ordered by distance and avg price per gallon for the octane relevant to vehicleInCtx. Put a “Get Directions” button in each row that when pressed launches map app on device. (do-able?)

Not all vehicles' dashboards display the same amount of information. E.g., some might not display a range/DTE; some may not display an AVG MPG or MPH; in those cases, when creating gas and odometer logs, it doesn't make sense to even display those fields. It should be possible to indicate which fields are relevant to a vehicle, and then have input screens render accordingly.

When the Home screen's viewDidAppear is invoked, all data-loading operations occur on a background thread via GCD. When done, the charts are re-drawn on the main thread. The various data sets that back the charts are held in NSMutableArray objects. In viewDidAppear, functions are kicked-off in background threads to clear the arrays, pull data from the local SQLite instance, and re-populate the arrays. The problem arises when the user quickly and repeatedly toggles back-and-forth to the Home screen. These 3 steps are occurring in multiple-executing threads and the data in those arrays are sometimes not consistent.
