Whotf even used Apple Maps lol

[–] irish_link@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I actually do when I am using my car that doesn't have a smart system/android auto/carplay. The reason is that it will ping/vibrate my watch when I am getting close to a turn or action. That way I know something is coming up. Thats about the only time I use it.

~~Losers~~ People deep in the apple ecosystem. There's a surprising number these days.

Apparently the Google maps app on ios is very terrible

Friend of mine showed it to me on a quite recent phone and it's super stuttery and laggy when scrolling around

That's kinda funny considering what garbage applemaps was when it launched. Google just had to not screw up and I guess they did.

Still not serious about their maps eh.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 4 points 1 week ago

I still remember all those Apple Maps memes.

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I'm sure that will really annoy all seven people that use it...

I don’t know if it’s my phone or wifi, when home, but Apple Maps will often be incredibly slow, or just refuse to display tiles when I zoom in or out. Particularly if I change the zoom by quite a bit in one action. It’s very frustrating.
