Google Maps is testing a new ad format that gives users the option to add a stop for a sponsored location during navigation.

    Bought iPhone last year.

    Tried Apple Maps the first week.

    Put in address to friend’s new condo building.

    Took me to a parking lot behind a grocery store next to the building, and then acted like I could drive through an old wooden fence to get to the condos.

    5/10 I only had to drive to the other end of the block to find the only entrance to the property.

      At one point Google Maps moved my whole apartment building/address three streets from where it should be. It was wrong for months even though I reported it when I had to keep telling delivery people that got misdirected because they used it to navigate. Anecdotal evidence etc.
