100% agree. I'm in the Netherlands (Europe, next to Germany) and live in a city with a population of ~120000 people. I often don't find places in Apple Maps, even in the middle of the city. Google Maps just finds everything.
Recently, they build a few new roads which Apple Maps didn't know about (Google maps recognised it very early), so they keep sending people in the wrong direction. After about 3 months i got so annoyed that i sent feedback to Apple Maps to have it added which took me like half an hour to get through the process of adding/feedback.
The sad thing is, the reason why Apple Maps is worse, is probably because they respect peoples privacy. Unlike Google, who follows android phones everywhere (1), and thus has more data, and better maps.
