Additional Features

Saying” set location” will ask you for permission if you want to turn on or update the location in your profile. You only need to do this if you are using the “use traffic” option to determine the driving time to your stop for your trip.

​

Saying “reset location” will turn the location off.

​

NOTE: Google doesn’t have permissions within the app. For it to find your location you need to you’re your home location while in session.  Once the Transit Conductor is open by saying set location. This feature is for Google Home and set once. If you move your Google Home to a different address than you need to do set location again to set the new location. If you don’t have location set and are using “use traffic” it will default to the trains coming up now.
