Hey guys, David here from Embark. If you have any requests for features or for new cities, we'd love to hear it.

Toronto PLEASE! I like the navigation on your website. I suggest that it should include a list of cities currently under development and the copyright year should be 2012 :)

  okay thanks for the suggestion. It looks like they have the data we need to make an App there. We'll look in to it.

  Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately we do not have the GTFS data we need in Barcelona to create a great transit app. If you're local, we'd appreciate any help we can get in obtaining that data from the local govt. If you have a second, please drop me a line!

As far as I can tell, you guys don't have a multi-modal app that works for the Bay Area. I need to take Muni, Bart, Golden Gate, VTA, and Caltrain on a regular basis. Is this planned?

Thank you for seemingly setting your coverage areas properly. It seems like some of the transit apps are just saying "we cover the US" and then when launched they say "routing is unavailable in that area".

  Apple limits you to 20 areas, so sometimes you need to generalize these coverage areas in order to fit under the limit.

    Ugh, that's not good. It's also interesting that you can update your areas in iTunes Connect without any review, so there's no friction to just saying "continental US".
