@OBA_Tampa@oba_pugetsound@sdmts@OneBusAway Looks like Google is having widespread problems with the Maps SDK, which is affecting OneBusAway Android https://t.co/J97v3IUK7s. Currently no option but to wait for Google to fix it. Please star the issue!

Your @Amazon Alexa can give you the weather, time and lots more, but now it can tell you how long before your bus arrives. https://t.co/c4sML5N0Jn via @METROmagTweet@sjbarbeau@OneBusAway

Unfortunately @googlemaps rejected our non-profit's credit request b/c OneBusAway " recreates Google Products or Services." ๐ We can't afford $1k per month ๐ฐ, so we've turned off our trip planner while we ๐ at options. See https://t.co/LwHNvWd8OC
@oba_pugetsound@OBA_Tampa
@OneBusAway - I think a large group of your users would be willing to pay $5 to $10 per month to keep trip planning alive. @googlemaps stinks, your solution was better. Or, show me an ad and keep it free. I just want it back.
