The year is 2026 and Google Maps still can't do a multi-destination trip using public transport
For those who don't know, when you're looking for directions on Google Maps you can add multiple stops which the route has to run through, an extremely useful feature if you're planning to do a lot of things in a set area like a holiday or shopping trip at a retail park.
One must imagine it's simple under the hood right? It's just multiple trips chained together, so if you want to get from A to C while stopping off at B, it just calculates the route from A to B, then adds on the route from B to C to the end of it.
It works fine for walking, cycling and even driving and has done for some time now, and yet its still not a feature for public transport.
If I want to plan a multi stop trip along one train line I have to open up multiple tab of google map and do it all manually, the write it all out onto paper or a spreadsheet or something even though (to my knowledge) there's absolutely no reason Google couldn't do this automatically considering it already has trains and bus schedules built into it so it could compensate, so it's not that that prevents them from making it a feature.
