Apple Maps has come a long way since its disastrous initial release. For about a year now, I have rarely used Google Maps. I typically find Apple Map's routing to be just as effective, even for avoiding traffic, accidents, etc.
- mason55 7y agoYup I switched about a year ago because I liked the CarPlay interface the best out of [Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, Subaru Built In Maps]. And the privacy over Google Maps is a huge bonus.
- TheHypnotist 7y agoI tried it. But then for some reason Apple Maps asked me to U-Turn on the Garden State Parkway. That's not an option. Back to waze i went.
- pfranz 7y agoI hear Apple is pretty responsive about correcting reported errors. There's error reporting inside the app that includes a spot to attach a photo. Of course, this can be problematic when driving and I much prefer Waze's error reporting.
- selimthegrim 7y agoHow do you do this for directions?
- macintux 7y agoYou have to do it after, or simply stop the navigation, but once you do, if you select the “Report an Issue” option from the Info menu you can pick from your recent trips. Once you do so, you can select the wrong turn/other problem from the list of steps and describe the problem.
- tcbasche 7y agoMy favourite feature on iPhone is it telling me where my car is parked. Sometimes I go to a meetup at a local university, which is also a rats nest of roads and alleyways, and this has saved my hide multiple times
- judge2020 7y agoGoogle Maps has this now as well.
- cptskippy 7y ago> its disastrous initial release. I'm no fan of Apple but I'd hardly call it's release disastrous.
- selimthegrim 7y agoThey finally updated buildings in New Orleans that had been demolished in the 90s well before Katrina but are still giving a dangerous routing from the west bank of the river to downtown that you will get ticketed for if police will see you do it. The alternate ramp has been complete since 1992.
- jwr 7y agoThe biggest improvements are only within the US, though. In most places in Europe, Google Maps is still way better.
- SirHound 7y agoIt's appalling in Amsterdam and with no cycling directions it's useless.
