Ratings and reviews

I've been having this issue for months, and either no one has said anything or I'm the ONLY ONE this is happening to: About every 3rd route I try to plug into my phone, after the route is over and I try to back out, it freezes on me. I can't go back to the main page of the maps no matter how many times I hit the back button, I can only go forward and it just locks up again. Plus it looks like the page extends(?) on its own and won't shrink back down. I have to uninstall & reinstall everytime

After typing an address and hitting directions then start, I can't use the tool bar at the bottom of my phone and "x" out of the directions. I have to turn my phone sideways for the tool bar to work and "x" out of the current directions. Then the app freezes and I have to close the app and reopen it and reenter everything. All updates are performed on my phone automatically for all apps and phone OS. It's not an update issue. This has been happening for months.

The last update has my maps switching my routes every few miles. It also repeats directions every few minute. 3 times in 1 minute while sitting at a red light. It's very annoying. Would be great to have this fixed. I'll still keep using it because I need it to do my job. I guess the update has a rerouting thing that works off of traffic info and other things. That can be helpful I guess, but the repeat direction is super annoying. Especially while in a traffic jam or slow traffic.
