iPhone Apple Maps Average Speed Cameras
I have been trying out Apple Maps after many years of TomTom. Seems to be working well and I mainly prefer it. Only thing that will make me return to TomTom is the lack of average speed cameras.

Universal [MAPS] I can't report a street, because it has no name...
Apple Maps often tries to guide me through a dirt road that can be used only by bikes and pedestrians. It is a nameless road that is so minor that I can't even report, because reporting pin doesn't want to stick to it. It is so annoying... Travel mode is of course set to car- Khavik

Poll: Preferred Maps App in 2024 - Apple vs Google vs Others

Apple Maps very low 3D performance on Ventura/Sonoma on Intel Macs
Hi, The 3D performance of Maps in Ventura/Sonoma on Intel Macs is very low! If you switch to 3D Satelite View (New York for example), dragging, rotating etc lags very much! Even if you have powerful hardware! I observe this on a Mac Pro 12-Core with AMD Pro Vega II. By looking at the Activity... -

Changes to Apple Maps via CarPlay on iOS 15 makes accessing features more-dangerous
I'm using Apple Maps via CarPlay for integrated vehicle navigation. I've had it since iOS 14.x. It works well, and has been great. However a subtle change introduced in iOS15 seems to be a step-backwards in my opinion. Previously, iOS 14 provided a feature where if you wished to mute the... -
