I really doubt that’s true, but I’ll give it a shot… it doesn’t seem like they position it as a good tool for driving directions, which is my main use case. Lack of traffic data is sort of a big part of that. How well they keep up to date based on things like road construction and changes is important, too.

No traffic data is a deal breaker for me.
Have you tried Magic Earth? It’s based on Open Street Maps but it has real time traffic data.
No, but I’ll take a look
Thanks
I’ve been trying to fill in the data around me. It’s not there yet. But I’m trying.
And I’m not in some backwater area. I’m just outside Chicago and when I go into the city I’m still filling things out.
