Apple Maps — Review Intelligence Report

Vulnerability: 55/100 | 435 reviews | Navigation App

Executive Summary

Apple Maps users in 2026 still report core navigation failures — 'avoid tolls' settings ignored, addresses leading to wrong locations, real-time traffic missing or stale, and 30GB of mystery storage consumed even with no offline maps downloaded. Google Maps is openly recommended in nearly every negative review. Apple's geographic moat (pre-installed, deep iOS integration) limits pure switching, but the gap with Google is widening.
