#2I live in Canada and an Apple Street Maps car passed me sometime in spring/summer of 2019. I suspect Canada will get a similar update in 2020 or early 2021.

#3Apple Maps has come a long way since its disastrous initial release. For about a year now, I have rarely used Google Maps. I typically find Apple Map's routing to be just as effective, even for avoiding traffic, accidents, etc.

#4I enjoy how they keep saying private as a f you to Google Maps. I’ll give Maps a try again, the privacy is a good enticement for me.

Google maps near me is riddled with advertisements now. Promoted pins or whatever they call it. Of course, it’s for stores that I won’t ever have a need to visit.

#6If Apple could bring bicycle directions into the app, I would probably never use Google Maps again.

#7I want to use Apple Maps more, but they still dont offer cycling directions. I used to use Apple Maps exclusively until I needed cycling directions because of the better lock screen integration and otherwise acceptable results, but I am still waiting...

There's also a whole tab of the navigate view that's just an advert for Uber, which I don't really appreciate.

Any idea why they haven't / are there plans to add cycle routes in the future? It seems like a glaring hole in functionality (more than "street view")

#10Congrats to the teams who did this! It’s been a long time coming.. and a lot of people said along the way that Apple should just give up it was too far behind. Perseverance (and a lot of resources) can go a long way!
It reminds me of some advice given to me by a heavily successful industrialist friend — never dismiss your competition, for the world is not static.
