Google Maps no longer locks away the entire app when you start a public transport ride. You can now search and change routes without ending the trip.

    TL;DR

    • Google Maps has updated its public transit navigation to allow full map access during trips
    • Users can now search, browse, and reroute without cancelling or restarting their current journey.
    • Plus, new walking directions feature includes pedestrian incident reporting like crashes or slowdowns.

    This IMHO is the main feature setting Google Maps apart from the FOSS maps. I wonder what the best way of getting it to be FOSS is? Is it getting the public transport companies to provide programmatic access to their scheduling?
