Google maps has been helpful to provide information to get places and restaurants nearby. However, there are tons of improvements to make maps the best in the world.There are places, restaurants or facilities have duplicates because of the language, please have an option to include a second name for another language.Some people would like to drive a longer route because of the toll cost or other reasons, please have an option to go another route since there's only option to avoid toll or highways. I have to always add another stop to do this.

I am a big fan of Google Maps. I usually browse lots of information and places that can foster my visits and travel. I can also realise the latest development of other cities abroad to broaden my views. However, this app is now become not user-friendly. Lots of features are now hard to use and not customised. One thing that disturbs me the most is the spreading spam contents in this app. There are scammers pretending local guides posting spam contents to cheat money. No matter how many times I report them, these “local guides” are still not removed. Also, there are lots of spam and misleading places that hinder me to explore the places in Google Maps. Google Maps edit system is piece of garbage. When I edit the places reasonably, it often rejects my edits with no reason or explanation. I don’t understand why Google Maps use Automatic Verify System that are so unreliable that causes misinformation inside the app.Edit: Google suddenly suspended my Local Guide account without giving me reasonable explanations. My contributions to Google Maps don’t violate Google policies.

When you set a route, that plans out our directions and ETA, the switch away from the app for more than a few minutes, the app resets so the planes route and destination are gone!This is very frustrating when you’re on a train since you no longer have your route or eta. You have to tap in your point of departure, time you left and destination all over again. This can be impossible if you’re in an unfamiliar city, or don’t record the time you left.Why this app does this makes it VERY frustrating, and could even cause you to miss your destination. This can be downright dangerous if your in a compromised situation.Also, the satellite view is often, if not always photographed from angle, which hides roads and features you need to navigate behind buildings.

I used to navigate with google map instead of apple map.However, there are something to improve.I am a transitional chinese user. First of all , the street or building display language is not under control by user setting. I know that not all of place have a chinese name, but i think it set priority of language display or display more than one language.Secondly, i would like to use watch OS version of google map to follow the guide path. Using one hand to holding a phone and walk around is not ideal experience.Sorry my poor English.
