Hope this update is better

A few updates ago I lost the ability to dismiss the directions and just see the route on the map. I would like to have that ability again...I HATE the directions on the left part of the screen. Would also like to see map without traffic as an option. I would like the CLEAR icon to offer "clear current" or "clear destination" ...once Ive arrived and want to quickly type in a new address I have to clear the directions then tap on the address bar and the. Tap the x...big PIA
