I have a couple issues with Google Maps on my iPhone over the last few months
1) it has trouble connecting to its own servers, leaving me in offline mode for an indeterminate amount of time, whereas Apple Maps was ready to go with live data. It seems Google Maps is not able to currently tell connectivity changes well, or that Apple Maps has a priority networking route or downloads things in advance.
2) Google Maps also has begun choosing unnecessary routes. I didn't use to need to double check and use my own head (as one should), but this is more frequent now as I don't trust it in this area. Yes, last night I was mid trip and saw Google Maps route but didn't have a place to pull over and tinker with it so I opened Apple Maps and just used its route which was quite different. The irony is that I had just finished jokingly making fun of someone for probably "being an Apple Music and Apple Maps user".
