    In Maps, my "Send to Device" options are grayed out

    I've chosen a destination on Maps on my MacBook. Under the three dots, when I select "Send to Device," both my mobile devices are listed there, but they're grayed out and unselectable. I wonder it's a setting of some sort, but can't figure what or where. All three devices are currently on my...

    Maps Sorting Bug?

    When I open any of “My Guides” in Maps, “Sort by Distance” is already selected, but I have to tap it, then tap “Distance” to get it to sort properly every time. It doesn’t sort automatically by default, even with that sorting option selected. Is that expected behavior, or does it seem like a bug?

    How to change this annoying Maps pop-up?

    There's one annoyance with Apple's Maps - the pop up window that I can never get rid of. If I've missed something please help me. I just want to see the location, not all the extra info Apple throws at me.

    iPhone Save own route on Apple or Goggle maps?

    Is there a way to save a route on Apple or Google maps on iPhone that you make. What I mean is I want to plan a route myself to avoid certain roads and then save it for easy recall when I’m using CarPlay. I don’t want Apple/Google maps to take me direct to the destination, I want to save a...

    iOS 14 Maps Lag?

    We were driving home last night, using iOS 14 Maps for the first time (on CarPlay with the wife's iPhone 8). There was a noticeable lag between the location where Maps said we were and where we _really_ were. Our position displayed on the map was probably 250 meters behind our current actual...

    Make Locations in My Guides Appear at Top of Search Results?

    One minor annoyance I have is when searching for a location I’ve saved in a Maps guide (bookmarked as a favorite, in other words), the results are always at the very bottom, beneath local suggestions. Is there any way to have these appear at the top, or should I suggest it to Apple?

    Why is macOS Maps ignored by Apple?

    Apple made some great features and UI changes to Maps in iOS 13. But how come the Maps app in macOS Catalina didn't get the same updates? It's frustrating that there's not feature parity between the two apps.

    Instagram is now using Apple Maps for their location maps

    I noticed today when looking at a restaurant that Instagram was using Apple maps instead of Google maps for their location map.

    Maps constantly using Location Services

    Has anyone else noticed that since Catalina, Maps is now continually triggering Location Services, even if the app hasn't been used? The little directional arrow in the menu bar keeps appearing and disappearing about every 30 seconds.

    iPhone Apple Maps Ride Option is dead?!

    Hi! The Ride option in Apple Maps never really took off here in Europe at least compared with Google Maps which has several options. But now Ride shows absolutely nothing for me. Can anyone confirm they see the same behavior or something different?

    Maps won't connect without reboot

    Hello, I am running macOS Sierra (10.12.6) with all the latest security updates etc. Almost every time I open Maps I am unable to search for any locations - sometimes I get a notification to say that it can't connect. I then close Maps, leave it for a while, and then re-load. Sometimes it...

    iPhone Apple Maps & Routing

    I REALLY want to use Apple Maps as my default navigation app but I cannot. Apple Maps seems to have preset “spokes” in its possibilities for navigation routes. This is particularly evident when attempting to travel between locations over “back” or secondary roads. Apple Maps will prefer to route...

    Is my Maps Directionally Challenged, LOL?

    Okay, this has me baffled. I keep thinking it must be brain flatulence, but I don’t see how. I first noticed it yesterday as I was driving across Kansas, and it happened every time I was on a US Hwy. When driving one direction on the road, Maps said I was going the OPPOSITE direction. I even...
