I use Komoot for wild walking and biking, and it’s incredible. Hugely more accurate and reliable. Just wondering if there’s something like that for city and intercity travel. Thanks for suggestions!

        You may want to try going into Maps settings->Navigation settings and turn off “Prefer fuel-efficient routes” as it tries to pick poor routes to keep speed down to save gas, and it is enabled by default.

        Their navigation was already mediocre at mapping successfully to a destination, now they’re trying to map down secondary roads they have even less knowledge about to pretend to be “green” annnd…stupidity ensues.

      The colors are objectively worse. Nighttime navigation contrast is zero. Even the bloody text is hard to read.

      I’ve missed turns because the chosen route and other roads are indistinguishable. I should be focused on driving, not squinting try to read their shitty gray-on-slightly-different-gray text.

      Someone is going to die in a crash because they didn’t test a fucking theme.
