Ratings and Reviews
Good for new neighborhoods
Doing instacart in my hometown, there is a neighborhood which is only partly built. Apple Maps does not understand this for whatever reason and takes me to incorrect addresses. A customer recommended google maps, and while google maps does in fact find the correct addresses and navigate me there, the sound of the person sounds somewhat muffled. The music volume goes down so that I can get directions from the voice person from google maps, but it’s hard to hear. My music is at a comfortable loudness and I’d rather not turn that up just to hear the GPS, whose level of muffled mumbling wouldn’t be affected as this isn’t a volume issue. There was one street where the gps didn’t tell me the turn was upcoming until I was so close to it that I would miss it, and I wish the app would tell me the next street I would turn at immediately after the current turn, rather than “in _____feet, turn ___ on ___.” Google maps also doesn’t seem to have speed limits posted on my screen, which I know is a me problem and not a gps problem, but I like to see the speed limit on my screen when I look. Otherwise I mean I got where I needed to go
Google Google Google…..come on
Every time I click on directions from Google, it asks me, do I want smarter and better and faster maps? Of course I do. So I can click a button and go straight to Google maps, an app I already have. Every time I click this tho, it does not bring me to Google maps. I click open maps, and I am brought to the App Store maps. Even tho I have the app. Then I open maps from the App Store and it has erased the directions I need so I have to go back to Google and then just type it in to Google maps myself. I might as well just use the maps app that comes with the phone bc instead of a short cut it takes me here every time. So every time I click for directions Google brings me to the App Store instead of pulling up the directions in the Google maps app. And then when opening the maps app from here it does not have any addresses saved from the google search I started with. Just not as convenient as the maps app already in my phone honestly. It’s actually wildly inconvenient when I’m running late and forget that the short cut will actually slow me down! Maybe this is more an issue with the directions button on Google not working (since it doesn’t take me to the actual Google maps app), but it brought me here so I’m leaving my review here. Every time it brings me here I leave one star.
Too many incorrectly positioned address markers
In my city, Concord, NH, there are way too many incorrectly placed address markers. It is like someone took the map and shook it like crazy and all of the versions of the addresses with abbreviated street suffixes were scattered to random places in the city and the versions with the fully written out street suffixes stayed in the right place. If you search my city and zoom in until you can see the numbers on houses and drag around the different neighbourhoods, you will find countless houses with 2 different numbers on them (one of them will be correct and the other one will list information for a street that isn’t anywhere close to where it showing, which you can find the correct location for if you type in the fully written out street suffix). You can also find other ones in random places where there is no house. When you use the “fix an address” tool in the app and it gets approved, in your contributions section it labels it as “new address added” and the incorrect address marker still remains where it was, causing the same problem. They need to add a tool to report bad address markers that just need to be removed, so us volunteer contributors can fix the map for the people that don’t already know how to get where they are going without the navigation system.
