Where is it bad? It's pretty good in Japan
- yardie 10y agoFrance, Germany are my main areas. It still sends me to wildly different locations each search. One example near Paris: some tourism company were hijacking Maps results so when I went looking for a specific language school this other place was the first result. Another example: I was in Cape Verde looking for the ships chandlery. The results returned were in Portugal. My second attempt gave me results in Brazil and Portugal. I've since learned to sanity check the results first. This can be hard when you are driving in a different country and Maps wants you to board a ferry and drive through sub-Sahara Africa.
- rangibaby 10y agoAre you searching in the native language for those areas? I think that might be the difference; Google maps search is unpredictable like your examples in English but basically perfect in Japanese.
