I asked Siri for directions to the closest Chipotle. When I got there, there was no Chipotle, but instead it was a Taco Bell. I googled it, and the Chipotle was two miles away. Bummer. Maps had been pretty good til then.
That is more than failing you.
That sir is betrayal.
Honestly, I wouldn't have minded it at that point, I was so hungry (we'd been driving for hours), but my girlfriends sister was really against eating at Taco Bell, so we drove the extra 2 miles.Did you end up getting something at Taco Bell?
See, this is the kind of crap that we can't just "accept". We spent money on this device and because of that it must be flawless (at least, that's what I've learned from the "scuff" threads).
Steve must be spinning in his grave.
I hope you plan on suing. I'm putting together a class-action. It's still in it's infancy, and I will be taking most (all) of the proceeds, but at least it'll be a big black mark for Apple for all of the emotional distress and hardships they've caused.
For shame... for shame...

It's not me who hates Taco Bell but my bowels that do.Should of told her to walk the 2 miles. How can anyone hate Taco Bell.
Google Maps is largely accurate though. They can take a long time to add new roads and buildings though. Doesn't hurt to tell them when new things are added or others change.There IS a google maps app ya know. they weren't perfect at first either lol, they still have blank fields where there are now buildings in my town.
It's funny how fanboys can even defend this

I had been using Apple maps exclusively since iOS 6 came out. But after it took me to the wrong location last week, I switched to Google Maps.
Today was a perfect example of how Google Maps trumped Apple Maps. I wanted to do some last-minute xmas shopping, so I fired up both apple and google maps and searched for "bookstore"...
Surprisingly, at the top of the screen Apple Maps has two mom&pop book store locations that google maps didnt' pick up. But sadly, as you can see Apple Maps didn't display Barnes & Noble. I just don't get it. How could they leave that out?
