The data that Apple previously paid TomTom and others to use was certainly subpar compared to Google's data. However, Apple started collecting their own data in 2015, and rolling out their own maps in 2018. >Apple is filling its map with so many [details] that Google now looks empty in comparison and all of these details create the impression that Apple hasn’t just closed the gap with Google—but has, in many ways, exceeded it. https://www.justinobeirne.com/new-apple-maps https://www.justinobeirne.com/new-apple-maps Apple's map data now covers the US and its territories and data for the UK and Ireland are currently in testing. https://www.justinobeirne.com/new-apple-maps-expansion-9 https://www.justinobeirne.com/new-apple-maps-expansion-9
