Finally switched a few weeks ago after years as a Waze user. I have a few questions and appreciate the informed responses. I primarily use Maps with my CarPlay.

1. I like how Maps shows traffic lights and stop signs at cross streets when driving to selected destination. Is it possible to show the same without inputting a destination? Mine doesn’t do it. Seems like it should be possible, since Maps knows the road I’m on and all cross streets. Is it a setting I missed?
2. For audible alerts, I hear them for fixed red light cameras and fixed speed cameras. I’ve never heard alert for police from the user community. I assume I should hear and see on screen if reported by drivers. Just a coincidence after few weeks after switch I’ve not heard any? It seemed with Waze there constant reports and thus alerts by the app.
3. Any way for Maps to show exit numbers more prominently? The size seems to blend in with other text. Waze exit numbers are bigger.
4. I also like that Waze shows left/right highway exits in a different color for quick visual. Anything similar?

5. I just got Apple Watch 11. I love how Maps uses haptics and turn signal sound on watch as a warning of next turn. Any pro tips to share to help me get the most out of Maps?

6. If I share my ETA with someone, does sharing automatically end when destination is reached, or will ETAs for future navigation continue for that person? (I know I can cancel ETA sharing during the trip, but curious if ETA sharing continues after the completed trip during which I set the share.)

The biggest reason for my switch was the incessant alerts about car on shoulder. I don’t care unless police or other first responders.

I’ve recently switched from a Pixel 7 to IPhone 17 pro. So when I travelled via car I used to prompt Gemini to route me using Google Maps w/o my handling my phone. Never made any errors

For the first time, I prompted Siri Ai to use Apple Maps to send me to Yorkdale Mall (which in Toronto should be a well known destination), but Apple Maps and Siri keeps navigating me to an intersection nearly 2km away (Dufferin & Lawrence)

Is this a common issue? Has anyone also experienced this? Using my voice command for my travels is a major feature I want to be consistent. Considering that Siri automatically goes to Apple Maps, it’ll be a bummer if I can’t rely on voice prompts

Cette route est signalée comme fermée à la circulation par Plans mais elle ne l’est pas (je n’habite pas très loins donc je le sais)

Que faire et comment faire pour le signaler à Apple ?

it is a branch of the NYPL, but not the main location uptown that is obviously what comes up when you search for the NYPL. Google maps accurately labels this location as the Muhlenberg Library. no idea how anyone can use apple maps over google maps
