Live map doesn't work anymore. Can't find routes serving a stop &/or a departure list when selecting the stop. Can't easily discover/explore routes. Everything useful to me is seemingly gone/hidden after the update. Not even "back" works. 😕 I quite liked it when it worked, but now we go into summer & will have to wait in the heat, from not being able to see when the bus will arrive, not to mention how useful it could have been to track the metro & bus operations after the storm disruption....

previous versions used to give trip details in the app , so confirm if the card was charged at the terminal or not. But the new version totally removed this feature even for the registered user as well
