I'm visually impaired. I can't drive and I rely on apples maps and public transit for mobility.
Finding out that apple is removing direct support for public transit is a big deal to me.
I'm sure its a big deal to many that walk or use public transit.
Now I know you can use third parties. Apple even said as much at the WWDC.
But third party maps aren't integrated like apples map is. For example, when you tap an address, its apples map that loads. When you ask Siri for directions, its apples map that loads.
I'm hoping apple will reconsider and keep direct support for public transit in its map. To that end I've created a petition that asks apple to not remove its direct support for public transit and walking from its maps.
If you agree with me that it sucks that apple is taking off direct support for public transit in their maps app, sign this petition and share it with other people on your facebook, google+ twitter, emails, etc.
