Triple update for Google Maps for Android
Google Maps for Android Helps Find the Right Place, Catch a Train, and Add Latitude Friends
There are localized apps for getting schedules, but it's also convenient that public transportation scheduling is one of a handful of enhanced features in Google Maps for Android version 4.3, new on Tuesday.
Schedules toe their way into the public transit page that's invoked by tapping the icon of a station that's plotted on a map--as long as those details are available to Google, that is.
The most practical new feature adds snippets of a review for locations you search out on the map. After searching for a nearby restaurant, for instance, tap on the map pop-up and you'll see the first two lines of a review at the top of the results.
Get the Google Maps for Android 4.3 update from the Android Market for all countries and languages where Maps is currently available. Note that the update is not compatible on Android smartphones running an operating system earlier than 1.6.
