Impressed with W10 Maps and Band

This might be old news to some but I just got the Notifications tile working on my Band and the latest Maps update on my Lumia 950 and they work together really well. I searched, in Maps, for a trip to my destination, chose a public transport route & started navigation, locked my phone and stuck it my pocket.

Maps started popping up notifications which came straight through to my Band. Like 'Walk 80m to stop 41', 'Wait here for the 212 to Blatown', 'Get off at the next stop', 'Walk to your destination' (which at this point was about 80m away).

This is the only time I've used it like this but the notifications seemed well timed and having them appear right on my Band was very convenient. Phone stayed in my pocket the whole time.

That's it. I was impressed and wanted to share.
