Some features not available in all countries or cities
Navigation isn't intended to be used by oversized or emergency vehicles
I can’t write reviews all of them are being blocked for ‘not complying with your policies’ however all my reviews are normal, mostly nice. Support didn’t help and said to contact app developers. How am I supposed to do that? Can someone please share what to do when account is suspended for writing reviews.
Navigation UI needs improvement
udjsiswyudishsgghsj
Navigation UI needs improvement.Specifically, I face bad UI in Apple Carplay. During the drive somewhere in the middle of the route or closer to the end I’d like to check for alternative routes. When I touch the button on the screen, the map still displays the whole route from the very start. Visually it is impossible to understand the alternatives, especially if the route is long. Imagine 500 km route, I have around 20km left and want to see alternatives. On the display I still get the full route which includes 480 km that already passed. This doesn’t make any sense. The map should only show zoomed remaining part and it’s alternatives. Don’t forget I am driving. I really don’t want to be occupied with zooming. You need to fix this ASAP. Waze doesn’t have such nonsense, it zooms to the remaining route.
map colours
Nyanko Angel
what was warm, easily noticeable, yellow, has now become cold unfriendly grey which is difficult to see and distinguish.why did you make the google maps' user experience worse on purpose? it's so much more difficult to navigate now for a pedestrian like me. please bring back previous colour scheme or give users an option to choose the colours that they want. ps since spring this year, maps have been displaying my location inaccurately only on this device out of all other devices i have (and devices that my family members have display location ok, so only this one device is displaying inaccurately). it's not very far off but off enough to affect the route shown to me. i have tried everything short of a factory reset of my device (which apparently is too much to do for fixing an app), and nothing worked. resetting internet settings, reinstalling maps, uninstalling new apps and checking if they made something wrong - nothing worked to fix the issue.
Best maps app ever

Well, if you are not from US, there is no reason not to use google maps, as exception Waze app is for the drivers. All the other aspects are so dominant over other applications
Thanks for using Google Maps! This release brings bug fixes that improve our product to help you discover new places and navigate to them.
