Sorry, Citymapper in one word
Minor issues: sometimes a bit ambitious for making tight connections & I haven’t found a way to schedule trips to my calendar or set a reminder
City Mapper for public transport in regions that are supported ☺️ I like the different options like „simple“ or „turbo“ for combining different modes & it’s somehow a joyful app
Today ⬇️ Last chance to get in your language and food fix of the year #BaeFoLa #LanguageAndFood #CulinaryLinguistics
Respekt!
