Google Maps tips & tricks
1

I really think that Google Maps needs to possibly work on it’s precision in as far as how the road looks to the driver in relation with when to take a turn.

I have sometimes missed very important turns because the turn looks further on the map and you discover that it is the one you just missed when it asks you to suddenly make a U-Turn or prompts you to take the next left etc.

This happens a lot when I use Google Maps off my Android, One Plus 3 phone. I know it’s not the newest model but I’ve had it for years and it has served me well :slight_smile:

This sometimes happens to me too.

However I solve this by using satellite layer on maps which shows clear picture of roads on maps.

However this post by googler @Corrie may help you…
