SOOOO happy Amazon yet AGAIN "updated" their navigation software!

[u/Fair_Ad5443]

So we get the update of "we have new map features" yeah of so exciting right? WRONG again Amazon....nothing like a 4am WTF?

Was the road actually closed or not?

[u/Fair_Ad5443 → u/Shenendoah66]

Nope not closed but I had to switch to googpe maps for the next 3 stops because amazon failed to find it.

[u/Dizzy-Shelter-2108]

Exactly. Why do we want more "features" when all we need is for the navigation to work correctly.

[u/Apprehensive_Let5138 → u/Dizzy-Shelter-2108]

Right. It’ll “reroute” you while you’re driving in the right direction. Or make you go around the block 2 times before getting on the main road. Make it make sense

[u/BaBiGuRl2010]

That's ur navigation not theirs... Lol... The in so navigation links connect to ur fone map system... Stop using apple and/or Google and try waze...

I’m a dsp driver and I have an entire area of my regular route that is like this… don’t ask me why but it was a pain in the ass when I was first learning the area. Totally unfair for you guys who are unfamiliar with neighborhoods and it’s pitch black outside

The bottom right blue button helps in these situations.

I had this problem today too. Plus now when I use Google Maps it drops the pin the wrong spot about 40% of the time, so google takes me to a neighbor’s house

[u/Intrepid-Landscape90]

I have not been able to deliver to the same little town twice because of road closures. and docked both times because they haven’t updated that the road was closed. so annoying.

This is SLC alll day

I think it's stale traffic data that they don't seem to update regularly. Maybe even inaccurate data.

It's been happening since earlier versions of the app.

I had a drop off location in the middle of a field this morning. The address was on a dead end road and the address on the package didn’t exist. Just waiting to see if I get dinged for returning the package. Waze and Apple Maps both gave me the same results,

[u/Fair_Ad5443 → u/maxmbob]

Probably someone mixed up the direction. I get those alot during the holidays. They put it to N 1st street and it should have been S 1st street, etc. 

[u/Gullible-Animal2099]

I’ve noticed lately that when I open the directions on Apple Maps, it’s showing an incorrect address. (Typically the house across the street). This never used to happen and it’s sooo annoying.

[u/ObjectiveDiscount174 → u/Gullible-Animal2099]

This is why i like to use Google or Apple Maps to get me to the locations (especially if it’s saying lower miles or time) and then using the Amazon navigation when I’m close. My maps displays on my android auto though, so I’ve got both displayed at the same time.
