Why do all #publictransit apps seem to be designed by people who have never ridden public transit? It's like they took one look at #googlemaps and just thought "oh shit I guess we need something like that" without considering that Busses/Trains Aren't Cars (or bikes/pedestrians, who are basically "cars with different weights and allowed paths" as far as navigation is concerned).

Ah yes, the riveting tale of someone discovering Google Maps' ability to *gasp* recalculate routes in 2007 😲. Spoiler: It's not magic, just #algorithms that anyone with half a brain cell would expect from a company that maps the world. But please, continue pretending like you're unraveling the mysteries of the universe 🧠✨.

Die Integration von Naturkatastrophen in Google Maps ist an sich eine gute Idee, aber vielleicht nicht ganz der richtige Ort für Upselling?

Going to trial using the PTV app, the official public transport app for Melbourne, instead of google maps for a few weeks. It seems similar functionality (route planning includes cars, bikes and walking) and at first glance feels very clean and fast.. Here's hoping it sticks.

Managed to accidentally hose #TomTom app with an update a few nights ago (there may have been a bug in latest version), so reluctantly tried out #GoogleMaps on #AndroidAuto
Privacy issues aside, its barely usable - #UI is cluttered, #speed indicators hard to see, no beep or other noise if you go over limit and its quite frankly not even that safe to look at when #driving
#TomTom app is now fixed, way better and worth the £20 for the years subscription

Außerdem nutze ich in letzter Zeit vermehrt @CoMaps als Alternative zu #GoogleMaps.
Das schöne an #CoMaps ist – neben der @openstreetmap Datengrundlage –, dass ich mir das Kartenmaterial in Vorfeld in den lokalen Speicher lade und unterwegs dann keine mobilen Daten anfallen müssen.
#DUTgemacht, finde ich!
