Have you tried installing an actual GPS navigation app (as opposed to just Google Maps)? At least the last time I used one (I think it was CoPilot a few years back) you could specify stuff like "avoid toll roads", "prefer simplest route", and set the size of your vehicle all in the settings menu.
- dsfyu404ed 10y agoI don't use my phone for my primary nav device, I use a decade old Garmin for most stuff but if I'm going somewhere I've never been on a more than 1min notice I just Google map it and plan my own route based on that. In urban areas street view is available and I can use that to make sure the Google route and my revisions are sane. In rural areas there aren't as many options or pitfalls so GPS generally works well if. Both the decade old GPS and Google maps have about the same effectiveness when it comes to finding residential addresses on small streets.
