Made up places

Tried to see the Gulf of Mexico, it was gone. The massive body of water disappeared and it took me to a place renamed by some orange guy.

Terrible

It has gone so down hill. I made sure x2 to not click the toll road option and it still routed me the wrong way and cost money. Literally can’t trust it anymore..

Courage

I can’t believe you gave I correctly labeled Lake Ontario and the Gulf of Mexico. You know those names you’re using are not legally changed, right? Please show some backbone and make your maps legitimate by showing the correct names. What are you afraid of, Apple?

Mal funcionamiento

Dice que vamos a llegar a McDonald’s en 10 min pero llegamos en 30 min

Need some changes

When you put a location like your home and then you move, it doesn’t disappear really easy or it doesn’t disappear at all.
Another thing: When this will be corrected could you please make the Home location on the top right of the screen (IPhone) and if you hold it you can change the main location of your home.
Make these changes please

No sirve

No avisa del tráfico hasta que estás en el y siempre busca toles no vías de salida no lo recomiendo

Worst navigation ever

I would have better luck with a flashlight and an old fashioned map at this point. Takes you on wild goose chases, doesn’t tell you about road closures, navigates you through the gates of hell rather than taking you to your destination…. The traffic updates aren’t even accurate because it doesn’t tell you anything. It’s like following a blind con artist into a black hole. It’s gotten worse after the recent iOS software update. This navigation system makes me want to chuck my phone into a ravine.

Please add an always north-up option

Google Maps is easier to use and has more useful features. Apple Maps has an unappealing gray color scheme and oversized pins that make saved places hard to see. I also dislike its reliance on Yelp. Please add an always north-up option, redesign the app, and replace Yelp with your own built-in business and place data.

Don’t trust it’s short cuts

Maps tells us to short cut suppose to take 10 mins off the trip. Ends up taking us on a route that added 30mins to the trip.

It sucks

Honestly, it’s trying to be like Google maps but it failed and failed horribly.

Worst maps ever

Never use this POS app ever they are the worst Maps company of all time. There’s no question about it. Never use them.

No Apple Music integrated control?

I love the maps, the directions, and the 3-D. But why can Waze have integrated control of Apple Music but an Apple map application doesn’t? It is mind-boggling how a Google app has better integration with Apple than Apple.

navigation: hard mode

use this if you want to take longer to get to your destination. use this if you think it’s too easy getting from point a to point b

Deleting this app

Frequently picks the worst routes. It often shows traffic where there isn't any, or routes you right into a traffic jam.

Awful

Weather im in the city or literally driving a county road in the middle of nowhere getting gas and the GPS will get lost on 1 way roads and take forever to actually find out where I’m going. Its almost 2027 and this app gets worse by the day

One way wrong direction

It has taken me wrong way oneway many times i choose it over google for its time calculation now due to safety concerns i have to abandon it i have been lately disappointed by apple maps

Angry

Not happy you changed Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America. I deleted the app but unfortunately had to reinstall it to work with my iPhone Contacts for directions. Other than that,I will not be using it at all.

Bloated

Somehow taking up over 15 GB of storage on my phone with no way to clear it, even by fully deleting and re-installing the app

Used to be excellent

The app is having issues lately. Not working properly
