I’ve used Apple Maps for years and it’s never steered me wrong. It’s no better or worse than any other map app.
Visually it’s nicer than Google Maps… I still prefer the amount of data about points of interest that Google Maps has. Apple’s reliance on Yelp is a bit cumbersome. Overall, I trust Apple a bit more from a privacy standpoint though.
Both have terrible literally terrible Privacy.
You can try Organic Maps if you have a pressing need for privacy in your maps app.
It seems... okay... when I used it. No support for android or apple auto integration though.
