searching for lat/lng, route duration, and better search are in the works
what's the deal with plus codes? i've heard about them a couple times but don't have a good sense of where/how they are used

Did you do much competitive analysis?
This is arguably a main problem with geocodes, however they are well designed or not (I believe plus codes are actually pretty well designed). It is obvious that they can't replace street addresses---unless they don't already exist, in which (uncommon) cases geocodes can actually be a solution---so they have to solve some different problems than street addresses, but those problems are too niche. If they look like solutions looking for problems, that's because they mostly are.
For some reason Google Maps throws plus codes at you, but requires you to dig deeper to find GPS coordinates.
