Interesting. I guess I’ve only ever used driving directions offline.
In their defense, Google does clearly say this on their website:
Tip: Transit, bicycling, or walking directions are unavailable offline. In your offline driving directions, you can’t get traffic info, alternate routes, or lane guidance.
I haven’t tried their app, but my car, unfortunately, has TT built in. Still looks and works as bad as it did 15 years ago on my Windows phone. I accidentally started it once when I didn’t notice that my phone didn’t connect via Android Auto. I’d rather Mitsubishi just included nothing when negotiations with Google failed.
Yeah, verb is kind of a stretch though.
