I just want it gone. Getting tired of all of these intrusions disguised as “suggestions”
At least yours are somewhat "local"...mine are worldwide suggestions.
I think the plan is to open up guides to every location once people have the ability to add on top of the curated ones. I don't think we can do that until native ratings come, but all indications point to that being very soon since it is in iOS 15 betas (mentioned, not accessible) for the US
I think they’re getting ready to bring look around to Westchester, New York. When you start to type the name of an address, it gives you a look around button, but when you tap on it it says “Street imagery can’t be shown at this time”
Hard restart?
Is it giving the "non-voice" notifications? (the "dings"?)
iPhone only? Or CarPlay?
It is not giving anything. Last summer I used it when I went to holiday and it worked, but after I updated on some version of ios it stopped. Now I went on holiday again and still doesnt work. Google maps works.
I connected a phone via bluetooth with music dongle in car. I saw headphones icon and I know it wont work with it. I disconnected it and nothing.
I wont do hard reset cause of that.. lol

While navigating, pull up the settings from the bottom of the screen and make sure audible alerts are on.
Also, try raising the volume in the car at the very moment you begin navigation. You can often only adjust navigation prompt volume while Siri is actually speaking.

Happened in most countries over the past day. Not sure why routing screens and CarPlay always get it first. It's the new "terrain" graphics, but not new Maps. They are quite accurate when I do comparisons and I think it looks much nicer providing a little more contrast.
That extra detail appearing in navigation mode is usually a sign that new Maps will be heading to your territory before too long. Perhaps France will be next after Australia.
EDIT - Disregard. It seems Apple snapped their fingers and added additional vegetation data in navigation mode for the entire world.

Even this new green overlay makes Maps look a bit better and evolving. ✌️
I would personally prefer Apple rolling out these smaller updates more frequently over wider areas worldwide versus their current strategy of polishing everything up for a handful of countries, while the rest of the world is stagnating.
If Apple do not have enough time and/or energy for global new Maps, perhaps they should allow users to contribute in more meaningful ways. For example, putting their Maps online and letting people sign-in and contribute. Wikipedia sort of thing…

Maybe they are almost there? I don’t want to get too hopeful, but adding a profile to Maps in the latest release is the first step to having an accountable system to track user input.
Apologies in advance if this has been mentioned previously but you can report hazards etc on Apple Maps in the UK now.
Started driving to work last night and got a audio message telling me I could use “Hey Siri” to report them.

Looks like it was added to Australia as well.
And I think I saw an actual user report while in NYC yesterday.
Maybe yesterday was “the day” for user reporting to go live?
Sorry...I should have clarified..."live" in the US. Not even sure if those other three areas, while able to report, can actually see the reports.
In Canada, we still can't report anything on Apple Maps, nevermind see them.
Really? Reporting incidents added to Canada?In Canada, we still can't report anything on Apple Maps, nevermind see them.
