HERE WeGo review

HERE WeGo is a general map app with solid public transport coverage. Its App Store listing says you can take public transport in more than 1,900 cities, follow walking guidance to and from stops, or switch to turn-by-turn driving. Its best feature for travelers is offline use: you can download a map of a region, country or continent and finish a trip with no connection. Saved collections, shortcuts and waypoints make repeat trips quicker, and a recent update says HERE optimized its public transport routing. For a list about real-time buses, though, it is thinner than the apps above: the listing does not mention live vehicle tracking, arrival countdowns or get-off alerts, and bike and car-sharing are described as coming next. It is free with no in-app purchases listed, holds a 3.7 rating from 1,600 ratings and shows 10M+ downloads on Google Play. We compared documented features and published prices only.
