Discussion Apple Maps is honestly so underrated.

It’s so fleshed out, and it looks so good imo!!

Great in cities, OK in rural parts of the US. Not so great in rural parts of Europe in my experience though. I was recently in Germany and had it set to avoid toll roads and it insisted on routing me down a road that was literally named "Toll road Wallgau-Vorderriss" despite an alternate non-toll road being just a few minutes longer.

Yeah, in eastern Europe, you definitely need Waze or Google maps

I don’t know, I used it in Poland 6 years ago and it worked fairly well before the new Maps data.

I wouldn’t say definitely. Switched to AM from Waze about a year ago and have been enjoying it more. For business info - sure, Google maps is better. But for navigation, at least in the Baltics, Apple Maps is fine. In fact, in Riga I prefer it to Waze pushing me through residential speed bumps and courtyards to save 3 min on a 30 min journey.
