I use Apple Maps on desktop as well. In my area (Denver) they seem to have about the same number of unique issues, but
1. Mobile Google Maps is so, so terrible in terms of screen-space utilization, look and feel, and also its behavior doing turn-by-turn. I've never been anywhere close to as angry at my iPhone then when Google Maps confused me into a parking lot and the low-quality synthetic voice got nearly a minute behind in micromanaging my way out
2. Desktop Google Maps is a lot less usable if you refuse to give the entirety of Google.com precise location access. The move from maps.google.com -> google.com/maps marked the last time I asked it for directions.
- magicalhippo 3y agoNot sure if it's a US vs Norway thing but Google Maps keep confusing me by saying "keep left at the fork". Like what fork?! Oh, you mean don't exit the freeway...
