Apple's stock iPhone maps program or Google Maps?

Tryin to decide which is better

Well, I'm biased against Google, so that settles it for me.

The stock iOS Maps app is really pretty good, in and of itself. My biggest gripe is that I would like a more easy to see set of traffic issue visuals.

The real issue is the mapping data - Google's is better, but it comes down to your needs. In my area, I've never found Apple's maps to be insufficient, but YMMV.

I bounce between the two. Why limit myself?

I use apple for nav and google for finding places. Once again, there have been numerous threads discussing this already.
