DOWNLOAD THE APP
i honestly don’t care what anyone gotta say but today imma speak truth into people cause this app alone saved my life, swear down if I didn’t have this app I would be lost somewhere probably crying. I was literally sweating down my back trying to figure out a way home, I walked for god knows how long in literal circles and I said CIRCLES, and when I say non of my friends were helping me I mean it, one friend hung up on me which messed me up. So with my last hope- despair crawling through me head to toe I turn to google maps, at first I thought I was crazy because I used Apple Maps and that’s horrible, but nonetheless I carried through and yes I did make a few wrong turns but google GOOGLE MAPS saved me, it would either show me I'm going the wrong way or would create a whole new route depending on where I was at the current time. I tell you if you’re a person that doesn’t know your way around and get lost easily, don’t be like the old me please download google maps it will just save you time and tears. As well as shame 😕
Great. But beware the ‘AVOID TOLLS’ option! 😡
Always rely on Google Maps when we’re in the US, and especially liked the ‘Avoid Tolls’ option when you’re in a rental car and don’t want a hefty admin fee from the agency for going through a cashless toll. However I discovered last week that it’s not reliable - drove from Ohio to Staten Island NY with ‘avoid tolls’ selected, no warnings/pop-ups to say anything to the contrary, only to find ourselves at a $15 bridge toll to get over to Staten Island. Turns out there is no way to avoid a toll on to the island, fair enough, but if that’s the case PLEASE GOOGLE can you give us some notification of this when we select the route? I could easily have gone to an ATM and got the money before we got there if I’d known, but the only mention of the toll is hidden away down in the route description, and the top of it still says ‘avoid tolls’. No warnings whatsoever. So I’m now looking at a hefty fine/admin fee that would have been entirely avoidable if the nav info had been more accurate. Yes I know that all New Yorkers are aware there’s a toll, but it was a last minute trip and I trusted google maps to just avoid the tolls if that’s what was selected, or tell me if it wasn’t possible.
For future updates, the difference between cash and cashless tolls would be useful info, so we could avoid cashless tolls, but use cash tolls, as that’s what most people out of state are worried about.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for letting us know about this issue, and your patience as we fixed the problem. We appreciate it! With the latest update, Google Maps should now be working as usual.
Pins to save locations no longer functional
4 years since I wrote this initial review reporting this problem and it’s still happening. Other reviews show I’m not alone, yet the issue is just ignored by Google.
Why have a feature on your app if a, it doesn’t work any more and b, you’re not going to fix it?
For years I’ve added pins on Google maps of locations to visit, usually adding a note in there to say what is at that location. All been working fine for years and now whenever I select one of those pins it just automatically deselects it straight away and just gives the coordinates, all the notes I’ve added I can no longer access. I can’t remove the pin and re-add it, because I can’t select it, so I now have no idea what the thousands of pins all over the world I’ve added are for. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, to no avail. Whoever thought of that update needs their head wobbling. I can’t be the only user experiencing this . Response to developer: I’m using the latest version and still having this issue . Further update to the above, the same is happening with all the pins I’ve saved since this review. A lot of users have reported this issue over the last few months, yet it just seems to be ignored. Looks like it’s back to good old pen and paper to note places to go.
