Does anyone know why the only public transport option is "subway"? I don't get why they would only index subways.
It's kind of weird to give that instead of just a general PT option that routes multi-modally with a menu to disable each type manually.
because you need to pull the schedules for each country in order to do that. they're working on public transport navigation, but it's still not ready for use.
If it's not ready for use, it either shouldn't show up by default, or it should have a visible disclaimer. Otherwise it could be dangerous...
yes, that's exactly why public transport other than the subway doesn't show up by default and you have to go an extra mile in order to enable it.
the subway showing up without the rest is beta software compared to other choices. It might route you three tomes as far all because it doesn't know buses exist.
Subways are great when hiking or boating
