Continues to expand Apple Maps shuttle service, this time including a large area spanning Tennesseeas well as the Nashville, Memphis and Knoxville areas. Apple's strategy in developing Apple Maps traffic coverage areas seems to be to cover the busiest or most used areas first, to open the circle more and more.
From today, if you are in one of the areas of influence described above, you can learn how to get around using public transport, both from your Mac or iOS or WatchOS portable devices.
Bus transportation is the most developed means in this part of the US We can, of course, know the arrival and departure times, last minute notices, as well as detailed information. It has information on the company lines MTA in Nashville, MATA in Memphis, KAT in the Knoxville area and CARTE in Chattanooga, among the main transport companies in the area.
However, it is almost impossible to know in advance the list of Apple action areas that offer traffic information. Nevertheless, When you turn on your Mac in an area with public transport coverage, a notification from the notification center appears informing us of the existence of transport information in Apple Maps. You just have to open the application, indicate your destination and select transit. This happened to me on a recent trip to Madrid where there is traffic information.
The pace of areas incorporated with public transportation in Apple Maps has been increasing in recent months. This opens the possibility of some value-added service with the new versions of the operating system that we will see from the WWDC next June. Although the progress process in Europe is paralyzed, it is said that soon the cities of Charlotte, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Wichita, Indianapolis, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Brunswick and Portland, Maine, may join Apple's service
Ugh, what a relief. I didn't know if I was going to be able to sleep, but now that Apple Maps is confirmed to be compatible with Tennessee transportation information, I can rest easy and relax. There is no doubt that for readers in Spain this was information of vital importance. Surely the same as for the inhabitants of Tennessee knowing who wins the handball league in Spain.
