We live in an age of options.

Switch to the MapQuest app. It is literally the easiest thing you'll do today.

No public transport support, at least in the UK :(

I'm currently switching between a Google Maps webview wrapper which has gotten particularly buggy recently, and CityMapper which has unblockable ads and only really works inside cities, not commuting in/out/between them.

I'm desperately looking for a good alternative

I am looking forward to Comaps (!comaps@sopuli.xyz) supporting public transport (which they are working on). I now just use the local service's app, which uses Apple Maps.
