the app is regionalised. it is only possible to create routes within the selected region. this means, for instance, that it is not possible to plot a route from Norwich to Ipswich, which are 45 miles apart and on the same railway line as one is I London and the other in Midlands. The app is excellent if both start and endpoint are in the same region. but for any reasonably long journey or even short ones crossing an arbitrary region boundary you can forget it.

I don't know what happened, but the trip time estimates have become dramatically inaccurate. For example our metro station is a terminal. There are two platforms and from them both trains leave under the same route number in the same direction to perform the same trip. The app takes only one platform into account totally ignoring the other one. It has become very bad on local details.

For public transit travel in and around NYC, Citymapper is definitely better than Google Maps. It has more and more accurate routes and departure times, which are really the biggest perks for me. Unfortunately, even though it's the best around, it still lacks important information sometimes, such as which NJT train track to go to to catch the train it recommends. I've missed connections more than once due to this, adding 30 minutes to my trip. Its waking estimates are also overly optimistic.
