    Controversial opinion: Apple Maps has far superior navigation currently. As in it will actually give correct lane guidance and haven’t directed me to the wrong place yet (Google Maps suggested the wrong ferry terminal recently, lol)

    Also tried a few alternatives but a lot of the free apps have given the same strange directions as Google, or missed important shit like one way road directions.

      Apple Maps does not update their map as frequently though.

      I drive a lot for work and frequently have to go into neighborhoods that are currently being built or were built 1 to 2 years ago. Even the ones that finished construction over a year ago either do not have the addresses in the correct place, or one just flat out shows up as an empty field with no roads despite being fully finished. This is very fun at midnight on a Saturday when the builder decided to put all the house numbers as engraved numbers on grey bricks built into the garage corner.

      Google Maps on the other hand will take me to where I need to go nearly all the time.
