    I have an iPhone and while I don’t like Apple Maps, I will absolutely switch to it in a heartbeat if this is added.

      It’s gotten so much better. Once they brought offline maps I made the full switch.

        Same here. I have been happy with Apple Maps.

        I was an early adopter for Waze and helped them build and fix their maps. I loved Waze. Several months after Google bought Waze, I repeatedly noticed battery draining faster and location was more frequently being used by Waze. I wrote to them about it. After some time passed and no response or change, I ditched them.
