Ratings and reviews

LATEST VERSION This app will chime when you're lost. Consistently. But it won't tell you how to correct the error. I pulled out of a parking lot in Boardman and it said "turn at the light". It did not indicate how many feet or what street. I turned right at the next light. The "wrong way" indicator went off. So, I went back out on to the main street and it immediately said "turn at the next light" and I turned at the next light. This repeated the entire way down the main Blvd in Boardman.

I am editing my review in 2024. In my opinion, Google Maps went from being the best to one of the worst and most buggy map apps ever. More than half of the time maps voice option doesn't work if my phone or infotainment system is on any audio option other than radio. At the time of this writing Android Auto doesn't even connect to my car anymore. My phone still connects via Bluetooth and wifi, but Android Auto is completely non-responsive.

"Recently, I've noticed that Google Maps has been unreliable with traffic updates. It often indicates no traffic delays between my starting point and destination, but once I get on the highway or interstate, I encounter heavy, bumper-to-bumper traffic. This inconsistency has made planning my trips challenging."
