@larry0x That's not on iPhone

@levelsio In this comparison, Apple Maps looks much nicer but I think Google Maps seems more practical, as you can clearly the see the road layout. In general, that seems to be the difference between the two. I default to Apple Maps because it looks nice, but if I’m in a rush or can’t

@w_riches They look the same But even in 2d top view Apple Maps shows 3d which is way cleaner

@GustavoValverde Wow photos, great work, is it 2005?

@levelsio They keep 3D for Google Earth product…🤷🏼‍♂️ Questionable strategy in my opinion 🙂

@makyslab Anything Google does rn

@levelsio Idk why DC looks like it, this is immersive map of Tokyo on iPhone. Quite impressive.

@AndreyPolyglott Superlaggy

@levelsio It's probably all all those deadlifts Tim cook is doing. Jkjk. Don't block me pls.

@santipen Yep he does lift

@levelsio Whoa has Apple Maps always been that good or did they just step up their game?

@ThreeMoonsAreUp Amazing 3d on iOS at least in USA

@levelsio Apple Maps has some cool features but they're only available in a few select countries. For most of the world, Google Maps remains superior in almost every aspect transportation routes, reviews, location accuracy, etc..

@levelsio Google Maps are still superior and so much better than Apple…

@levelsio Doesn’t matter won’t ever use Apple Maps because they sucked so bad when they first came out and screwed me over so many times.

@levelsio Using Apple Maps.

@levelsio Ok but NYC though

@levelsio The problem is global coverage. I’ve seen lots of cool Apple Maps features that only exist for a handful of US states, and many more that don’t show up / work as well outside the US.

@levelsio you vs the guy she tells you not to worry about

@levelsio I use Apple Maps nearly 100% of the time for navigation. Google Maps when I want to look up a business for reviews, a menu, hours

@levelsio Let’s see restaurant review comparison. I’m not there for pretty pictures. I can see the thing in front of me in real life.

@levelsio In the US, Apple Maps is really making waves. In London and Tokyo, Apple Maps felt unusable at some points, and I had to use Google Maps.

@levelsio Which one gets you to your destination most efficiently?

@levelsio yeah buy why does apple maks suck at finding businesses... my only compain

@levelsio Sick but i'd prefer the one that is even times new roman on a note pad if it had the quickest route 😂

@levelsio People want to get to their destination the fastest way; nobody cares about graphics. It's like having a fancy-looking calculator that cannot add 1+1.

@levelsio I switched to Apple Maps a while ago b/c I didn't like the news that Google routes less efficiently, and less safely, to promote an agenda. My only complaint about Apple Maps is they get the business data from yelp which died years ago.
