This is much more usable than google maps for manhattan (on my iphone), I'm very impressed! Google maps is a great app, but it's clunky for the specific use-cases of city-dwellers. I really like how you don't have to specify your mode of transportation a priori, because in cities there are usually five different ways to get somewhere with different tradeoffs. Instead, the app tells you the standard options (subway, bus, bike, walking), how long it will take, and how many calories you'll burn.

- akgerber 12y agoI wish there were an option for subway + bikeshare— sometimes the fastest way to get somewhere is to take a train then grab a bike for the last mile.
