Still Using Google Maps in 2024? (Apple Maps vs Google Maps)

Get 50% off at geni.us/1PasswordPersonal / geni.us/FamilyPasswordManager
After recently switching to an Android phone, I thought I'd compare how Google Maps stacks up against Apple Maps. It's not a 'definitive guide', but hopefully it's helpful to those of you who are using an iPhone and wondering which one to use, and those using Android to know that Google maps is actually a pretty decent app.

Apple Maps tells you which lane to be in and generally gives more context based directions which I prefer. Google Maps will tell you “in 500 feet turn right” and Apple Maps will say “go past this light and turn right at the next one”. In busy areas that context is really helpful.

Yes I'm still using Google Maps in 2024.

As a UK truck driver I prefer Apple maps I find it friendlier to use and the reroutes are definitely better than Google maps. I recently saw a TikTok with some beautiful remote Scottish beaches. Researched every one of them and Apple failed to recognise several of them where as Google found every one of them. I would love to see Apple maps continue to improve & add bridge heights and weight limits please Tim.

I hope they do, but I think they took a good few years to even add things like speed cameras into the app! :D

[@smvballer6]

[@djstevieo]

I have a probably rare and extensive long tested history in this matter if anyone cares to hear me out. I drive a fire truck in New York. I know where I’m going but in a situations like people being trapped in a burning house, every second matters. So I like to punch in the exact address to where I’m goin so I can drive as fast as possible directly to the front of the house or building with minimal braking or lookin for house numbers . Waze is useless. It takes you on a route that averts traffic and I need to go through traffic quickly on a direct route. And I don’t need speed camera info or a social medial like environment. Google maps has taken me the absolute wrong way a few times and I’ll never use it for what I do. Apple Maps has never failed me in 9 years. Multiple times a day. It gives me a direct route every time and with the offline maps I never have to worry about a glitch. All I need is that blue line and I follow it to the emergency. Now I understand this is rare. The average person doesn’t do what I do. And Waze and Google maps are amazing apps and work very well. But for what I do it’s Apple Maps every time. That’s my 2 cents.

[@ddgiant]

You mentioned the Waze features. They are active in Google Maps. The icon on the left side of the screen during navigation opens the Waze issue reporting window at the bottom of the map. One other thing to consider in the comparison is the supported devices. Google Maps can be used on both Android and Apple devices, while Apple Maps is only available on Apple devices.

[@josesampaio5345]

I’ve tried to use only Apple Maps here in Portugal. I can’t. I just can’t. I find google maps is more useful for me.

[@dtoney1182]

I enjoy haptic feedback from my Apple Watch when using Apple Maps. If you don’t have Carplay with a screen pulled up, It’s super handy at letting you know that your turn or exit is coming up. Plus, my Apple Watch talks to me to let me know about an upcoming turn or exit so for me, I prefer Apple Maps.

[@NavneetRao]

Google Maps on my Android phone, using a Google Pixel watch does this for me as well. I usually drive with voice navigation set to "Alerts Only", so I do enjoy the vibration from the watch reminding me about an upcoming exit it turn!

I love Apple Maps for its simplicity. It's so much easier to understand than Google Maps. +1 for the contextual audio directions. Looking forward to the new maps updates they're rolling out in the UK.

[@Lightfighter1]

Excellent comparison. One note though - you mentioned that Google allows you to great and share groups of favorite places - Apple also lets you create guides and share those with friends and family. Although not editable in a shared manner by all, I create guides for every city we will visit on our trips and share them with friends and family we are traveling with. Very useful!

[@marilyn2k2]

Biggest issue I have with AM (which I use on daily basis) is that they are a lot less reactive on changes (road closure, taxi lanes, change of direction …) leading to really funky situations

[@Dumptheclutchevo]

Just found your channel, and this was really interesting, given that I used to be Apple everything (used to work for them), but switched to Android/Windows around 8 years ago, but am now back in the Apple world (somewhat begrudgingly)...

[@PrinceAlberts]

For driving, no app I’ve used beats Waze, though I’ve never used it to drive outside of the US. Being able to get traffic updates and even add closed roads and unlisted places in the app is great. I use Google Maps to get around the trains in Japan. It’s great for knowing which stations or platforms are closed, and for finding my way around the massive Tokyo Station.

[@PraneetTulshyan]

in India too, Google Maps is much better in terms of traffic calculation, and overall updating of city routes, road closures, etc. So far, the only positives for Apple Maps have been around the sync with Apple Watch and integrating with lock screen for directions and Siri to call out ETA, etc.

[@MarkMcLenaghan]

I have used both in my car. I think the android auto and Google maps does pretty good with using my voice to find a destination. I also find that Android auto detects and connects a bit earlier which can be annoying if trying to use the house wifi whilst in the driveway.

[@PeteMatheson]

Oh yeah, the slow Wifi bugs me SO much on iPhone. Android is way faster to connect.

[@AhmedTagelsir99]

I’ve used both quite a lot the past few years and I have to say for driving Apple Maps is really increasing the gap on Google. The lane guidance and road classification on Google maps has been quite poor recently in the west midlands. It mistakes a lot of roads for footpaths and forces you to take unnecessary route arounds. Apple maps’ road data has overtaken Google maps at least in this part of the country

[@foundabanana]

I use both. I find google maps 100x better at finding restaurants/activites etc with a way more reliable review system and i enjoy navigating better on apple maps while driving.

[@AmSleepyJay]

It is important for people to remember that the features of these apps vary depending on what country you're in. I'm in Australia, idk about the amount you get in America, but the amount of options to report incidents is less in Google Maps than Waze despite both being owned by the same company now. Google Maps has only 7 options, while waze has 12 with multiple sub options inside.

[@Kolcobrzuch]

I use both but trying to use AM more. But what I miss - or I just don’t know how to do it- is searching and adding targets along my way. I travel quite often across Germany and I would love to check which fast food for example is next to the highway without zooming in. GM can filter those easily.

[@henryha835]

I used to use Apple Maps but I use Google maps now because Google maps has gotten much better with routes. Google maps routes used to be horrible where I live especially in the city but now it’s the same as Apple Maps so I just use Google maps because I like the UI better and it has Spotify integration

[@edwardhudgins3286]

Haven’t tested it on both to compare but one thing I find Google is lacking is the information needed for which lane to stay in when on a motorway. You look at the map and it shows go forwards so if you stay in the left lane on some 4 lane motorways that split into 2 lanes you can get stuck and have to come off. Might just me be and maybe need to have the voice activated for more information.

[@lynnharman8983]

I’m an Apple groupie! You can get weather on Apple Maps by zooming in on a location. Maybe google has that too not sure. Love Apple’s spoken directions, gives you plenty of fair warning!

In Australia, Google Maps is dog water. especially in outback where mobile service is very patchy, Apple maps has very up to date street view for my area where google hasn't even gone down the main road. xD All in all Apple Maps is a W here :)

[@fr33bird7891]

I switched to Apple last year and have tried their app on 2 road trips. It worked fine for a straight shot but searching for a fuel station while on the road was a major pain. It’s less that I prefer Google maps and more that I’ve used it since it kicked Mapquest to the curb so I know all the ins and outs.

[@marcellofrisina6460]

Living in LA, I drive everywhere, and with the chaotic highways and mergers of a large city, the ability to get timely voice directions is so so important. It’s the only thing I care about, so Apple Maps is my go to. After several instances of Google failing to tell me I’m turning until I’m literally already at the intersection, moving at a high speed with a ton of other cars surrounding me, so I miss my turn… I’m never turning back unless Google does something to address this

[@no_hacker2]

You forgot about the better movement in Apple‘s LookAround and the 3d maps and buildings

[@alexanderll]

I switched to Apple maps around two years ago while doing Uber eats. It was more precise finding houses, for example if I was in a neighborhood it will point out if the house was on the left or the right, that way you can only start looking to one side of the road.

[@YvonneS]

Hi Pete, great review on both maps. I love using Google and Waze maps. However, it was confusing hearing you give more thumps up to Apple throughout the video but at the end saying; “clearly Google is the winner?”🤔 Ironically, because of your review I’m going to switch from Google to Apple mapping now knowing all the features from your review.

In Paris Apple Maps sometimes has issues with house numbers and sends you to the other side of the road. That was the reason for me to switch back to Google Maps.

[@El_Locoroco]

I use both. Apple Maps looks better, traffic lights are marked in my country - that's a big plus. BUT, the most important profit google maps has is the database. To find a small shop, a doctor or an institution is better with google In Germany. Apple.

[@ericlarson3165]

I think me personally Apple Maps is better because a lot of times it says at the next stop sign or light turn left or right onto this or that road. And I noticed google maps shows when you’re approaching a stop sign or traffic light but it doesn’t say what Apple Maps does

Not necessarily. It usually gets the ETA spot on, even on 60-mile journeys partially in peak traffic. Must say I use California far too often as a swear-word, though! E.g. snow = a complete unknown!

[@mikewolf5367]

I had to use Google Maps on a work phone for a government job where I was going to hundreds of houses a day and honestly I had a lot of problems. Either it would put me on the wrong street or the wrong block or sometimes it couldn’t even find the address I was standing in front of. I ended up having to use my own phone with Apple Maps 98% of the time. I think it would be fantastic if Apple were to put their Maps app in the Google Play store.

[@SirGenesis206]

I largely agree. The actual driving, especially voice directions, heavily favors Apple. But the routes, live updates, reviews, finding new places, interacting with information, etc. I favor Google. So I’ll plan out just about everything from Google Maps and then click Apple Maps to just get there. I just made the switch a week ago when I kept making wrong turns into exits that were close to each other or forks in the road where Google told me too late.

[@eamonob84]

I use Apple Maps because I only use map for navigation so I don’t care about the other features. Apple Maps is simply better for giving directions due to more clearly explaining the turns and, like Pete said, giving you the heads up sooner. And in the US it seems most people have iPhones so traffic info seems about equal between Google and Apple. I do wish we could pinch to zoom in and out on CarPlay like we can on Android Auto.

[@roykent2316]

Great comparison ☺️👍 I very much prefer Apple Maps for the UI and privacy, and I think it has improved a lot in recent years… However, when looking up places, I still go to Google for the reviews. There simply are too few on Apple😑

[@georgeoust]

I use both, Apple Maps for navigation, and Google maps for looking up places, hours, reviews, etc. I find they work best like that. Apple Maps in my experience is wayyy better than Google for navigation, and Google maps just blows Apple Maps out of the water for information abt places. For anyone curious I live in southern Europe but in a major city area, so if you live somewhere more remote this could vary.

[@JosefTorkelsen]

Apple Maps in the US wins for me. It is prettier, it makes it clear where to turn, watch integration, police and red light camera information, etc. it does need much better searching especially outside the US. In Taiwan, it is nearly impossible to find a place using Chinese characters even if you copy and paste it.

[@colt1815]

I cant tell you how many times ive had to tell people when meeting me somewhere to not use apple maps because it will either take them to the wrong place or take an extremely inefficient rout to get there.

[@Not_now_dave]

Also Apple and Google Maps is a little different depending on which phone software you’re using. Like Apple Maps on an android phone has its limitations compared to iOS and vice versa

[@PlanetLinuxChannel]

I find Apple’s voice navigation guidance to be so much more natural. Saying to “turn right at the next traffic light onto [street]” is way nicer than “in 200 metres, turn right onto [street]”. Providing distances can be useful in certain circumstances, and Apple sometimes will, but it’s usually so much easier to comprehend and understand as you’re driving. Although Google’s public transport is undoubtedly better than Apple’s, I don’t care for either of them. I rather use the Transit app (green and white icon). It’s definitely quality over quantity, being in a limited number of cities, but that number is constantly growing and it provides truly superb public transport navigation.

[@Tomasrrb]

I'm in Venezuela. Google Maps works best here. However, my favorite is Waze. It gets more routes than Google Maps for some reason.

You know, Google's been in the maps game for a lot longer than Apple has, so it's really not all that surprising that their Maps app on the iPhone is just way better than Apple Maps. Google Maps is just so much more detailed and full-featured, you know? It's like they've had a lot more time to refine and perfect it. And somehow, even though it's a third-party app, Google Maps just integrates really nicely with iOS and CarPlay. It's almost like it was made for the Apple ecosystem or something. I find myself using Google Maps all the time because it's just such a smoother, more polished navigation experience. Apple Maps has come a long way, but it's still got nothing on Google when it comes to maps and directions.

I wish we could get Google Maps with Apple Maps directions/instructions

Just use waze...in the city it is a must!

I tried both on the iPhone. I find myself using Google maps more. Its better in my opinion

Appels aesthetic is great but at an app thats more likely a tool I rather prefer functionality over aesthetic
