Yes the fact that I can check my phone in the morning for my commute and get an accurate (ish) bus time including delays is great, I can avoid a long wait for a bus at and have another cup of coffee.

A lot of shopify themes have terrible speed issues and some of the older ones just don't implement structured data properly.

Another area is Integration with Google analytics.
