    Universal [MAPS] I can't report a street, because it has no name...

    Apple Maps often tries to guide me through a dirt road that can be used only by bikes and pedestrians. It is a nameless road that is so minor that I can't even report, because reporting pin doesn't want to stick to it. It is so annoying... Travel mode is of course set to car

    Poll: Preferred Maps App in 2024 - Apple vs Google vs Others

    Curious on where the community stands on maps app usage these days. I couldn’t be a bigger Apple fanboy, but I still can’t come around to switching to Apple Maps. Most of my non-tech friends though do prefer Apple Maps which I find interesting. For me — something about the location search...

    iPhone 15 Pro Max iPhone 15 Pro Max GPS Apple Map or Google Map freeze then starts again.

    The Google Maps and Maps app on my iPhone 15 intermittently stop functioning and then restart. This issue has persisted since I owned the iPhone 13 Pro Max and continues with the new iPhone 15 Pro Max. I've tried resetting my phone from scratch at the Apple Store, but the problem remains. It...

    Apple Maps very low 3D performance on Ventura/Sonoma on Intel Macs

    Hi, The 3D performance of Maps in Ventura/Sonoma on Intel Macs is very low! If you switch to 3D Satelite View (New York for example), dragging, rotating etc lags very much! Even if you have powerful hardware! I observe this on a Mac Pro 12-Core with AMD Pro Vega II. By looking at the Activity...

    Apple Maps doesn’t recognize my address as home (Japan)

    I live in Japan. My iPhone uses English as its primary language, and the region is set to the US. Apple Maps gives a correct address for my residence. However, when I add my address to my Contact card as my home, either through Apple Maps or manually, Apple Maps won’t recognize it. It won’t...

    iPhone 13 Pro Apple Maps doesn’t count down distance when navigating

    When you put in a location to navigate to it doesn’t count down the distance to the next turn etc. like it used to (I’m on the latest update). I’m on holiday in Vietnam and using my watch for maps a lot, and it’s annoying having to constantly check my watch as I don’t know how far I am from...

    Apple has today started rolling out the redesigned maps in Norway, Finland, Sweden, and Austria. Some users will see the new maps and others will still get the old ones during the testing period.

    Can’t add an address from Apple Maps to a contact (France) [Resolved in iOS 15.3]

    Hi everybody! I used to frequently add looked-up addresses in Apple Maps to my Contacts. A few weeks ago (when it was still iOS 15.2) I noticed that when I find an address in Apple Maps and then choose to add it to an existing contact, it would not work. The Contacts app opens, I can select a...

    Changes to Apple Maps via CarPlay on iOS 15 makes accessing features more-dangerous

    I'm using Apple Maps via CarPlay for integrated vehicle navigation. I've had it since iOS 14.x. It works well, and has been great. However a subtle change introduced in iOS15 seems to be a step-backwards in my opinion. Previously, iOS 14 provided a feature where if you wished to mute the...

    CarPlay Road trip through National Parks in the US West. CarPlay: Apple Maps or Google Maps?

    We'll be driving from Southern California to West Yellowstone, MT and back. I like the interface of Apple Maps and traditionally use it day to day, but prefer the historical data of Google Maps (and other features like 'add stop'). Which maps app would you use with CarPlay and why?

    Dumb Question...how do you add a place from Apple Maps to your Contacts?

    I thought I looked everywhere, but I probably missed it. How do you add a contact from Apple Maps to my contacts? It used to be nice because it seemed that it added more info than a normal contact when you did that. I was adding a bunch of Apple stores to my contacts. I know I can obviously cut...
