One beef of mine with Google’s offline maps is that they’re only driving maps, and not walking/transit/cycling maps. Obviously you can kinda figure out walking paths anyway, but since I’m sometimes travelling without roaming access, it’s unfortunate.
- giantg2 3y agoI image it would be hard do transit maps if you weren't connected to get the schedule.
- Scoundreller 3y agoThey already get them somehow while "online". Offline with beginning & end times and a rough idea of frequency should be good enough for local use. Offline road maps are subject to construction/seasonal/holiday route closures/deviations too, and so is transit.
- giantg2 3y agoRoad closure tends to be much more rare. Transit is much more variable in the US.
- steelframe 3y agoHave you tried Organic Maps for walking or cycling routes?
- kevincox 3y agoNo one walks in Mountain View or most of the US so product management doesn't understand the use case.
