Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I might want to travel on Sunday somewhere so I open OM on Saturday and see what options are, OM doesn't give any options around start time/date.
It also only lists what it thinks is the best route, but there are other routes. For instance, in Berlin, if I use the BVG app, I can go via 4 or 5 routes to my destination (U-bahn, S-bahn, Tram, Bus). OM only gives one option.

Describe the solution you would like
A way to enter start time/date, even better with a drop-down for arrive-by, and an option to pull up the bottom info panel to look at alternative routes, ideally showing the times of the transit.

Describe alternatives you have considered

How do you solve this issue now with Organic Maps or other apps?
I have to use other apps to get this info, and that only works in cities I have the closed-source apps for.

Only Subways/U-Bahn/Light Rail are supported now for Public Transport. We'll introduce appropriate timing settings when it will be properly implemented, see, for example, #507
