Google Maps App Reviews

I love Google Maps and I use it as my de facto maps app. Its by far he most polished and expertly incorporates Googles wealth of business information. This is something other maps apps simply cannot match, including public transit data, which keeps me a loyal user--regardless of who my tech employer is. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE DAY FOR iOS TO ALLOW ME TO SET GOOGLE MAPS AS THE DEFAULT MAPS APP.

Five star review must have application for any business or if you are just looking for relevant related research.

Its working a lot better/easier on my phone (iPhone 5) since the latest update! Thank you!

Works great..very reliable and easy to use.

Can be useful.

Without it Im crippled and cant find my way around but its a pretty crude solution. Just for looking things up, this app is at least accurate. Its a pain to use but can find places. If you want directions forget it. So cluttered and not intuitive. My thumb always bumps the button and the map centers around my location again. I dont need the little timed messages at the start of a drive. Too many clicks to start a drive. Too many clicks to stop or add a destination. Cant trust the text at the top of directions, you have to watch the map cuz sometimes it wont direct you to the right exit on complex multi-lane ramps. Rights as youre missing your exit the text changes. I miss version 1.0 that came with iOS back in the day. This version needs an overhaul and more options need toggles in settings so I can declutter my iPhone SE screen.

Google maps works better and is more fluid… Apple maps does not even compare.

Not too bad

App is hanging and I cant delete and reinstall. What do I do now?

But wouldnt rate higher than three stars if it would stop sending me to side street and back alleys as a destination to an address

Love the ability to look up restaurants and gas stations along a route and add way points. Would love to see speed limit and current speed integration.

Dont know what Id do without it

This was a five every time I try to map directions I get this free Uber ride advertisement and now I cant go back to my directions please mix

If you are driving to or in town you have never driven to before, do not rely on this app. If you make a wrong turn, freeway exit, or if Google looses its satellites, you get absolutely no notification you are "off route" and a re-calculation is under way. Or is it? Who knows. Instead you get a "in 500 feet, turn right" without explanation. You now have to stop the car and try to figure out what just happened, with absolutely no idea where. They really need notification of some kind when a recalculation is occurring.

I use it almost every day! I find the traffic overlay especially useful.

There are small features in Google Maps that make me recommend it over others. Reliable ETA times, up-to-date maps, and other things make this app great.

Google Maps is the best navigation app out there, with the possible exception of Waze. I dont use Waze because it requires constant gps (and therefore data) access, which is ridiculous. I use Google Maps instead. Which is great, except that theres no option to have voice guidance not speak out street names. Which is ridiculous. Its a small thing, but it aggravates me because a lot of the streets I end up driving have names like "State Road 10-66-23 S Lincolnville Road," and hearing Google Maps read that out three times while Im approaching a turn is just asinine.

GPS and/or the map are freezing.
