This is 100% spot on! Everytime someone misses arriving somewhere on time, I ask -- were you using Apple Maps, the answer is always yes.

- xenospn 10mo agoI find Apple Maps much more accurate than Google Maps in the US. Internationally, YMMV.
- bgirard 10mo agoYea. When my girlfriend and I travel I use Google Maps and she uses Apple Maps. And it's a running joke at this point that if we're struggling to get somewhere, she'll pull up Apple Maps and get us unstuck and bug me to switch. I think it comes down to minor UI polish that makes Apple Maps more intuitive with transit and cardinal directions but I've never done a full comparison.
- freehorse 10mo agoThe one time I tried to use it for navigation (I don't remember exactly why, but I had some trouble opening a link I was sent elsewhere, and I was lazy to copy and paste the coordinates to another app) it sent me somewhere else than where I was supposed to go, around 5km away. I remember I was sent a link with coordinates to the meeting place, but somehow when opening the link in apple maps and asking the directions to there, it changed to a different destination, that happened to be a similar (but otherwise unrelated) place.
