Correction for Map Not Displaying in Apple Devices
After a recent Google update, maps are not properly displayed on Apple devices. Apple users can make an adjustment in the setting of the myStop app to update this issue. Users will navigate to Settings in the myStop app. Once there, the user will need to select Apple Maps under Map Provider (see image below). With Apple Maps selected, users should be able to view the map as intended. Thank you for your patience while this issue is resolved. Thank you for riding CATA!
