I keep giving Maps a try, hoping it will be better, but once again it falls short. For some reason my car’s lane departure system can tell when my car is within inches of the center line, but Maps sometimes thinks I am on a freeway, when in reality I am 30 yards away on the service road. Unreal! Map’s integration with Apple Carplay is mystifying. I’d say 50% of the time, if I search for a location on my car’s Carplay screen, and start navigating from there, it wigs out, spinning around like it’s lost, telling me to follow the route. If I cancel and initiate the same destination from my phone, it doesn’t do that. This has happened with multiple vehicles and iPhones.Dear Apple, if you’re going to produce such a bad app, at least let us change the default app for navigation on the iPhone. At no point has Maps been in the top spot, or the top two spots for that matter. There is no shame in decommissioning it to focus on something else that needs improvement. You are doing yourselves no favors by associating your name with such a subpar product. But hey, the new AI driven voice that fixes none of these issues and sounds somewhat disinterested, is what matters. Glad you’re focusing on what’s the least important.

Well. I’ve used this for like 10 years, and I didn’t know that there was a setting that was turned on for automatic updates, which is fine, I didn’t see it. So I turned it off. The app had already updated by itself because when I plugged my phone in to charge, the phone turned on by itself and connected to WiFi (naturally, as IPhones do). So when I went to see why I couldn’t look at food times, it was because my “Location Services” were off. The button for the “Location Services” at the top of the screen has now turned blue. It changed while I watched it. It was black before. Just regular text, and then it was a blue bar. There was a text box that popped up and only gave me the options of keeping my “Location Services” off, or turning them on through settings. Fine. I tried using “Offline Maps,” but that doesn’t work. So I went into settings to go turn on my “Location Services,” however, they were already turned on. My settings were set to use “Location Services,” “While Using” the application. This didn’t make sense. I should have “Location Services” on. I went to go change the settings to “Always On” because I thought this might help. I cannot. My button for the “Location Services” settings have been greyed out and I cannot click on them to change anything. I am unable to use my buttons to change my settings from on to even more accurate and on, and it will not let me. I have no navigation now and I guess no Taco Bell :,) Wai

In addition to what I already wrote, following this, I have a new complaint that they are trying to force their sexual stuff and gender stuff into my map app, but all I want is a drive-through and you’re trying to offer me sexual gender locations. Sad to say it, but like all Apple goods and services, the quality is going down while they simultaneously attempt to charge us a membership fee, just to be able to use our property which we have already purchased. Previously, I could search a keyword and it would try to present me with businesses within 20 miles of my location containing those keywords. However, it just forces me to a random business that’s not nearby, that has the keyword, but it might be in another state across the country, and I’m not allowed to simply search for every business in my area that might have that keyword. So what’s the point of maps anymore? I’m not able to search for businesses nearby which give certain services. The map cannot possibly know what I want. It has to give me the list of everything which matches my search criteria and let me decide what I’m looking for. It can’t possibly pick a random store and tell me this is where I have to go and then not allow me to have any other results show up in the search. There’s multiple businesses which have my keyword nationwide, and probably in my local area, but it’s forcing me only look at one store, and one store only. What can possibly justify this?

I used Apple Maps when I brought this iPhone in 2022 and I saw the map app so I tried this app every time on the highways from Virginia to Nj and when I compared the mapping eta time apple map was the best one and it tell so much details than google maps or wave and I hate wave because there is Notting to explore or not tells details like google map or Apple Maps and the first time I tried New Jersey turnpike because of the apple map or I whould stick with I 95 and Pennsylvania turnpike extinction and in 2024 when I went to India this map was saying so much thing than google maps but the problem is it doesn’t show the toll price, speed limit or the toll require but when I reported a road close I a bridge it got updated after 10 day and that is good thing. Conclusion when I used both Google and apple map they both are good ,but I prefer Apple Maps because it has so any advantage than Google maps in my opinion but still I use google maps sometimes for city navigating which means I love Google maps also but I like Apple Maps more than Google map but still waze is the most one I hate.
