Information on public transport is now available in Japan

Maps-locations-0

One of the novelties that came from the hand of iOS 9, was the information on public transport, information that allows us to move through the different cities where it is available simply by making use of Apple maps. This feature is great when visiting any of the cities that currently support this feature. Unfortunately, at the moment Mexico City is the only Spanish-speaking population that has this information. The release of iOS 10.1 In addition to the arrival of Apple Pay in Japan, it has meant the availability of information on public transport in the country.

Japan is one of the countries that takes the most advantage of rail transport, so Apple has not had it very complicated when adding this information to its maps as it announced in the last keynote in which the Cupertino-based company announced the arrival of Apple Pay to Japan. The information about public transport in Japan not only allows us to plan our train routes from our Mac or mobile device, but also allows us to know at all times the routes by bus and metro from virtually the entire country and are used by millions of Japanese every day.

Today Apple provides information on public transportation in Austin, Sydney, Baltimore, Berlin, Boston, Chicago, London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Toronto, New York, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Washington DC, Montreal, Portland, Seattle, New South Wales, and Rio de Janeiro . It seems that in recent months Apple has focused on adding information about public transport instead of improving the Flyover service that allows us to visit a large number of cities from a bird's eye view, an ideal function to get an idea of ​​the city that we are going to visit.
