Test 1 - Back to schoolDestination: University of San Francisco. Hail to thee, alma mater. I wanted to see the old place and really be nostalgic by taking the bus to get there. When entering my destination, Apple Maps confused the University of San Francisco with the University of California, San Francisco (something that bedevils any USF grad), but it understood me eventually. Both apps include a button with a tiny bus icon, but that's where the similarities end. Google Maps allows you to search by the type of transit (bus, subway, train, etc.) and the route (fewest transfers, less, walking, etc.). After making my selection, I got a list of all the available routes with each option listing the kind of transit, the departure and arrival times, the total trip time, and the cost. Clicking each route shows the exact instructions including how to get to the transit stop (with the distance and walking time) and the number of stops. I can take one of three bus lines to USF, and Google displayed each one accurately.

Apple Maps, on the other hand, fell short immediately, Clicking the bus icon takes you only to a list of third-party apps from the App Store that offer transit directions, If you've already downloaded one of the suggestions, it will display it at the top of the list, Yet, it's not clear if that title will give correct directions, For example, though Apple Maps showed that I already owned a BART-related app, BART won't get me anywhere near campus, To find a free app that would help, I had to scroll down to the seventh option on parisian black & white stripes (vertical) iphone case the list, a title I had never used called (appropriately enough) The Transit App, But again, making your choice will be a trial and error process, An app may cover your route, but it may not, And the preview page may not give enough information..

I then had to go to the App Store, download the app, and open it before I could get the help I needed. On the upside, my selection delivered correct results straightaway (so I didn't have to enter my route again), but the process involved far too many steps. What's more, while the app's instructions were accurate, it doesn't deliver the "full picture" I got from Google Maps. I knew how to take the bus, but I had no idea how to get to the stop. Test 2 - I'm hungryDestination: 4214 Park Blvd., Oakland, Calif.

Dinnertime, and I wanted to visit my friend in Oakland at a neighborhood Italian restaurant, Marzano (check it out if you're local), I don't need a car to get there, but I will need to take BART across the bay and then transfer to a bus in downtown Oakland, Here again, Google Maps delivered the results I needed with a choice of routes and all relevant information, And this time, things were a little easier on the iPhone because I had already installed a relevant app, Now, I just clicked on The Transit App from the list and the right parisian black & white stripes (vertical) iphone case instructions loaded, On the downside, I still missed out on a lot of information that Google delivers and I had to go through an extra step..

Test 3 - Weekend escapeDestination: Larkspur Ferry Terminal, Larkspur, Calif. I wanted to meet another friend in Marin Country for a hike and some time in the sun (I just got through another foggy San Francisco summer). Also, I thought I'd take the ferry over to the Larkspur Ferry Terminal rather than sitting in Golden Gate Bridge on a bus. So, yes, Apple Maps fails when it comes to public transit. It tries to give you some options, but the user experience is poor. Even when you manage to find an title that's helpful (and hopefully, free), switching to a third-party app for transit directions takes you out of the mapping feature. That means a lot of switching back and forth between the two. And as I said above, Google Maps gives the whole picture by getting you to the transit stop and then on to your final destination.
