- qwerpy 5mo agoReally sad to see. The last thing I want when I'm trying to figure out how to get somewhere is a bunch of sponsored pins and results, slowing me down and giving my brain more garbage to process. That screenshot in the link is still vastly better than Google Maps: a generic search for "restaurants" may feature a clearly marked sponsored restaurant. There's a long ways to go until they get to Google or Yelp's level. But we all know they'll get there soon enough, copying Google's "innovations" as they go.

- threatofrain 5mo agoYup, Google Maps is technically superior even as Apple Maps has done tremendous catch-up through the years. But that didn't matter when Apple was good enough and didn't put ads in your face like Google.
- _aavaa_ 5mo agoTo say nothing of the difference in number of store listings and their accuracy.
- tencentshill 5mo agoAre you going to use OSMAND? Its navigation functionality needs a lot of work.
