Just took Google maps for a spin. As you may know, you can have multiple gps programs going, so I had Apple Maps and Google maps running at the same time to compare the two. And guess what, Google maps sucks! I think it might even be worse than Waze.
Slow, choppy, ugly UI, takes twice the clicks to do the same thing as Apple maps, was late on turns, can't input start address, and obviously not integrated at all with iOS.
I'm SOO glad Apple ditched Google! Nothing compares to Apples design and programming skills.
