I've recently been working on a game and I wanted to include this font in it. I've been a bit worried though because of the vague and scary sounding license that seems to come with all fonts, including Johnston. Did you consider the legal aspects? And did you do anything to make it "legit"? Like pre-rendering your text assets to images or anything? Or did you just include a .ttf in your app bundle?
I knew it looked familiar but couldn't place my finger on it - yes, london underground. thanks :)
I may have been misread - to clarify, I wasn't knocking the app or saying it was bad - it has a distinctive style (or really, is borrowing from the LU) and I wish the author success.

Might just be the fonts, but this looks like a Windows 8 app.
Congrats on the launch!
The font, called Johnston, is from the London Underground design style and the colours are those of the lines

It's a great font!
