    In a bid to beat Google
    Let's be honest, that will never happen in the Maps arena.
    What exactly makes Google Maps so special these days? 
    Not that GM is 'so special' but Apple maps is incredibly poor in some areas. 
    Basic, vital functions like a route that includes a stop (let alone a few stops) is not possible. This gets rid of AM for me for about 80% of all trips. 

    Other yhings lacking in AM (not sure if GM has them as I use another service)
    Speed limits and alerts
    similar sounding names - 
    st versus road. 
    location awareness? You'd think AM would have this. But often I ask am for directions to a location within 10km (a few miles) in Australia and it will give me directions to the USA and 3000km away. Beyond stupid.
