are people using apple maps completely different than google maps? 90% of the time I use map for searching places, shops etc. If apple maps is not excelling at that, why do people use it?
- Austin_Conlon 7y agoI use it for transit times to a handful of places in the Bay Area I regularly visit, and it works well for that. One glaring search problem I have though is for a contact, it will only show the result for the first two letters of the name and then when I continue typing it shows anything that’s not the contact’s address. This is even despite getting directions to the contact several times.
- arrrg 7y agoI have yet to have an enjoyable experience with any maps app looking for places. That experience always seems frustrating to me and no fun at all. I mostly use maps for finding routes. I think it’s important that people differentiate between what they are using maps for, since finding places and orienting oneself are very different use cases.
