i don't know how an app like this manages to become worse with every update. nearly useless at this point, you're better off with a paper map. Today it routed me to the middle of an interstate, nowhere near an exit, and said I'd arrived at my destination. A few days ago it only offered one route through backroads no matter how many times i tried to hit the alternate route button. I took the highway route i already knew, and unsurprisingly got there in less time and distance. Absolute Trash 0/5 ⭐

Update: Sometime around January 2026, the starting location in my Google Maps (GM) app has been wrong. For example, when starting from my "Home", some random address nearby comes up, instead of my correct home address. This never used to happen. I've cleared the app cache, verified that my location features are accurate & turned on in the GM app, etc. Nothing seems to fix the issue.

I work out a map on my laptop because my phone won't let me edit it to the specific roads I want to take, and then my phone changes it anyway? Even if sent directly from the laptop? Also, even if I do set it how I want, sometimes the AI decides to change it while driving because it's "faster and more efficient" and it forces you to click to keep it how you want, but I can't exactly do that while flying down the highway. Like I didn't have my route set a specific way intentionally. Awful app.
