Not if you continually use public transportation. I go all over the place in NYC, and there doesn't seem to be a way to get the directions to default to public transportation. Having driving directions and traffic wait time when I don't have a car is kind of useless.

Press the i button in the top right hand corner of the card. Select 'Transportation Mode' from the expander. Select from Driving, Public Transport, Walking, Cycling etc.

Excellent, thank you so much for this. "Next train leaving in <x> minutes" is sweet.

I always use public transportation in Boston and configured it to show directions as such the first day I had it last fall. It's probably more useful if you use it this way because there are usually multiple possible routes to take and it gives a very good indication of when to walk out the door.

He stated he used it for few months.

I've been using it even longer, and, aside of few "ok, cool" moments, it is completely unusable piece of software.

Deal breaker for me is - you can't rely on it as a weather app, you can't rely on it as reminder, as currency converter, and so on. Simply put, it's unreliable.

And a bit scary to boot, but I don't mind that, seeing how incompetent it is.

Unless you work as Taxi driver, or Messenger.
