### "Google Maps is a Lifesaver!"

March 20, 2025

5.0

I have used it many times to travel distance as far as 18 hours away to new states across the United States with my large family, and it has been such a great tool to guide us in our journey and help us find everything we need along the way.

Pros

I love that it is extremely reliable and the features are constantly getting better when it comes to the detection of obstructions along the way.

Cons

It can be a inconvenience when a route is outdated or doesn't map a location correctly because it is a fairly new destination or else because the business is no longer in operation.

Pros

Is easy to use, since is the built in map app in Android phones, it has some interesting features that the rest doesn't have, I can see my route from my watch, and is very helpful with android Auto

Sometimes the location bugs a bit, but it fixes by itself in seconds

### "Google Maps - one of the best inventions"

January 20, 2025

5.0

Excellent, love it and no issues at all, loyal fan.

Pros

BEST THING EVER. I have navigated all over the world from Asia to EU to USA with Maps.

Cons

Nothing. I heard there is an upgrade coming to show lanes, that would be very helpful too for complicated roads that split multi-way.

### "Google Maps - if it's Google, it's got to be great."

February 7, 2025

5.0

Fantastic experience. Sometimes your mind can wonder from the task in-hand by going 'walkies' and looking at areas in close-up, and other countries. I looked at Norway in close-up as I did this review!

Pros

Google Maps is great for plotting journeys and drilling down into the exact location of a building - instead of your sat nav taking you to a street at the back of the building, parallel to the road you should be in. It's great for calculating mileage claims, and visualising an area via photo images. Using Google Maps instead of a sat nav is more likely to get you to your destination a lot easier and quicker.

Cons

Nothing not to like really. Not sure if there's any competition out there for Google Maps.

### "Accurate Navigation with Useful Features"

February 7, 2025

5.0

A highly dependable mapping tool for navigation and exploration, though it’s not always perfect in route optimization.

Pros

Reliable real-time directions, traffic updates, and detailed location information, including reviews and photos.

Cons

Occasionally suggests inefficient routes, and offline mode could be more robust.

### "Google maps review "

May 29, 2025

5.0

Pros

I LOVE GOOGLE MAPS. ITS SO CONVENIENT AND SUPER EASY TO NAVIGATE! I actually dislike Waze because it is super slow. I love Google maps because it’s a fast moving app as well!

Cons

Nothing I can state other than please keep it simple use like it is at this point. Waze has too much going on which is what I dislike. Maybe add the feature like Waze have with detecting cops

You can easily find directions to anywhere by typing in the address and choosing which route you want to take.

### "Google maps- daily experience shared "

August 23, 2024

4.0

I use it daily to move from one location to another, I use it to visualise locations. For my projects as well I used it’s API. Also I can see the real time traffic in my area, locations near to me for visiting

Pros

I like the real time detection of traffic and analysis of time required to move from point A to point B. I like the way they have images for visually determining how the locations actually look like without even visiting the place

Cons

The costing they have for accessing there apis

My overall experience with Google maps is really positive

Pros

I like the most that most of the time it is really accurate and it is saving time when I travel and I need to make a stop along the way for example ( food, gas station, shop...)

The least I like about Google Maps is that sometimes it takes me to the wrong place or makes me go through a one way/closed street
