Saw this on the bird app earlier but trust this community for the facts: What’s better at this point, Apple Maps or Google Maps?

I use google maps lists regularly and share them so I’m locked in. I use apple maps for walking directions because I prefer the UX - but no incentive to copy my lists over, etc.

Apple maps *still* doesn't do a good job indicating when you're about to need to turn. Google does a little zoom when your turn is next, but with Apple I've missed so many turns because I can never tell if it's *this* turn or the *next* turn. I haven't looked it up but I suspect that little zoom is patented by Google

Apple Maps, maximalist Google doesn’t need any more data—they’ve proven they don’t use it for anything good.

I still find Google Maps to be 10x better: - Search - Reviews - Bookmarks - Ease of navigation - Web client It is probably within the top 5 apps I use daily. Apple Maps does feel lighter tho

Both will eventually break down into more specialized apps, imo. I’m working on one for local discovery.

Moving my pins and saved locations from Google maps will keep me using it forever. Plus Google maps is still a better product imo

Google still better for: - finding specific things (ie. “barber shop”) - bike directions Apple Maps better in most other cases, especially with the benefit of getting navigation directions on your watch.

Honestly feel like Uber/ Lyft should pivot into having a map product.

Prefer google maps. Better places profiles and reviews. Habits are hard to change and Apple Maps is not 10x better. Don’t love the push notification recommendations from Apple Maps

I usually use Waze for driving (especially during busy times), Apple Maps for walking/transit, Google Maps for searching nearby food/venues

Despite being heavily invested in the apple ecosystem I still prefer google maps. I just have too many lists and pinned places in google. Apple Maps is improving but not there yet, and I rely heavily on google reviews. https://i.imgur.com/d9Dlppp.jpg

Apple Maps may be lightyears better at this point but I use Google Maps since I guess I'm just used to it? (I use iOS)
