hey - i just thought i would post this in case this can help anyone, i know it’s been a lifesaver for me since i discovered it!!
*also not 100% sure if ive posted this in the right place, apologies if not*
a couple weeks ago i had to get a bus to a place i am very unfamiliar with and i was sooo anxious about it. i had no idea that when using google maps that it makes things feel so much less stressful! basically, i put in where i was travelling to and it had like a live tracking thing of where i was and how many more stops etc - it made it so much better, as i was actually convinced i was on the wrong bus because the bus company app / the names of stops along the road did not actually match lol i feel like this is very much common sense and im gonna look silly now for sharing this, but just in case there are people that like me were unaware of this and could find it helpful:) ive attached some screenshots to show what i mean because i probably explained it really badly lol
i hope this can help someone🩷
