San Francisco: Google has announced that its mapping service for Android mobile devices is getting an upgrade, the improvements center on listings for public transportation options in nearly 500 cities around the world.
The update includes suggested routes and departure times for more than 1 million stations worldwide, about 50 percent more than a year ago. At some stations, Google will provide indoor directions to help riders navigate the system.
Google is offering its latest improvements only on devices running its Android operating software which include models from Samsung, Sony and Google’s Motorola Mobility division.
Google promised that it eventually hopes to make the upgrades available for other systems, including the iPhone and the iPad, but it didn’t say when.
