For me, the killer feature of Google Maps is Reviews. For directions, I now usually use Apple Maps, although somehow I find myself "double checking" with Google Maps, especially for public transportation. Also the opening hours are more accurate on Google Maps, because a lot of business actively update their Google Maps profile, but not their Apple Maps profile (probably don't even have one there).
I've noticed that Apple Maps recently added their own review system with the thumbs up and down, so it looks like they're trying to get there.

In my experience both Apple Maps and Google Maps can give unreasonable directions for public transport, with the best in class being Citymapper. It's also the only service that provides guidance on which subway car to board (closest exit for transfers, for example).
