    My biggest gripe is that it can’t handle multi part trips with turn by turn directions. By that I mean - let’s say I want to go across town to my destination and that involves using the subway that I need to walk to. For some reason Maps doesn’t give you turn by turn walking directions to the subway part, but will show you the map with your location to the subway then to destination. You have to start and stop turn by turn directions to each part separately. That’s such a pain in the butt and is nonsensical.

      Really? It does that for me just fine. Maybe the subway movement data isn’t properly uploaded to the Maps system?

        I’d love to see a video of it working. As far as I know, there is no way to do so. You cannot plan a trip that has public transportation and have it give you turn by turn walking directions to the pickup point, have it automatically turn off those turn by turn directions when you’re on the public transport, then automatically turn the turn by turn walking dirrections back on when you’re off the transport.

        It simply shows you the overhead map and tells you to walk to the transportation. It does not allow you to see turn by turn directions to the location when you’ve got a mixed mode of transport (walking and pubic transport).
