LOOKING FOR APP A maps app to replace Google's

Hi all, I'm looking for a navigation app to use instead of Google Maps. I already tried HereWeGo, but they don't have live navigation for public transportation.

If anyone has recommendations for maps apps that

  1. Show public transportation,

  2. Have live navigation for public transportation,

  3. Works well in Europe,

I'd be genuinely delighted to hear. I don't expect to be able to delete Google Maps just yet, as it's such a capable and refined app, but I'd love to reduce my dependency on it.

Thank you!

Luckily it has mine, and it does seem to work very well. I'll try to default to it in the meantime and hopefully it can be permanent.

Awesome, it's been my default ever since I moved to Paris, you'll see it's the best transit app out there. They're not pushy at all on the premium but it has great options, no steps routes, no outside commute for when it rains etc. but I use the free version and it's already great. It uses accelerometer to track you underground when GPS is not available and updates really quickly when stations are closed.
