Last week I was driving and a popup from apple music to accept more terms and conditions showed up on top of Maps.
It was a tense 25 minutes of interchanges without nav before traffic was clear enough to deny the terms, and I purged the app and cancelled the subscription afterward.

- altairprime 10mo agoIf your nav audio is muted when the popup appears, you can’t unmute it until the popup is cleared.
- skylurk 10mo agoI don't know because I don't drive with turn-by-turn audio. For the record, I actually like Maps for driving. I find the level of detail just right for how I use it. My main complaint happens when you are not driving: if you let it have access to your location, Maps is constantly resetting your pan/zoom if the app becomes inactive. So on MacOS I block location, but a phone has to have your location for nav of course.
- pstuart 10mo agoSomething similar, except it was a map alert that covered the map to see upcoming exits -- and there wasn't a clear way to dismiss it. It was FU UX.
- nake89 10mo agoThe first time I connected my iPhone to my car through apple car play, it started popping up whatsapp notifications over my map! Very bad first impression! I was shocked that they think some notification is more important than being able to know where you are driving. Notifications should not be on by default!
