And then you see the route trajectory making you turn into a river to flood your vehicle, or worse, have you turn onto a beach because the route trajectory goes right into the ocean like it thinks you are driving some sort of boat mobile.

It would have been amusing to see the route trajectory

Google maps has been getting worse as well. I’ve been moving off after many years of using it.

What do you use? I tried OSM but found the navigation interface required too many taps on hidden menus to set up and to close. It’s easy to re route on the fly on Google and just tap finish when arrived, but that’s not the case for OSM.

Osm+. It took a long time to set up, but it was worth it. What also helped is downloading as many local maps as possible and set up favorites. It’s not perfect, but for what I use it for, I like it.

Osm is okay, but honestly so far behind GMaps that I’d rather go blind than trust it. Better chance to arrive.
It’s still the closest and of course beats Apple Maps but being lost beats Apple Maps. But it also highlights how good Google Maps is at navigation.

Everybody’s in here complaining but the app just wanted to show its user the rip in space and time it discovered just down the street.
