1. Google’s Material UI is a total dumpster fire and I use it only as a last resort.
2. Apple Maps integrates much better with everything else I’m using, so the experience is smoother (e.g., looking up an address on my laptop and then sending directions to my phone).
I keep Google Maps around as a backup, mostly for places of interest way out in the boonies, like hiking trailheads.
Do you have any coherent reasoning behind your characterization of Material as a "total dumpster fire"? Other than "I don't like it and thus it must be bad?"
A large part of it is certainly my personal preferences. And even if Material were itself good, completely disregarding the UI pattern the rest of the phone follows in your apps to implement your own is still going to be jarring.
