It will take xx amount of minutes

Instead of the default Maps app in iPhone, use Google Maps from the App Store. Apple Maps still has some problems that they need to work out, which is why I use Google's version, which is way better.

 

That won't really change the proactive/traffic suggestions that appear in the proactive screen or the today screen (in the notification center).

 

....... it's possible because software has/will make errors? I'm not really sure what your question is, here.

 

I imagine the implication is to remove the apple maps widget and add the google maps one.

Apple Maps isn't a widget. It automatically appears in Notification Center 'Today View'. It is based off of Frequent Locations and will automatically tell you how long it will take to get to your destination.

 

I realize that, though you enable and disable like any other widget. Turn that off and add Google maps travel times for virtually the same functionality. There's no way to fix the apple issue, it's serving useless information, so using something that potentially gives useful information is much more useful, right?

All you need to do is add "home" and "work" saved to google maps. Viola.

 

I'm not disagreeing with using Google Maps for that purpose, I was merely stating that you can't 'turn off' the Apple Maps widget, because its not a widget. I personally use ETA for that functionally. Didn't know it was even an option on Google Maps.

 

Yes, you can

 

Good to know, thank you!
