Google Maps have gotten quite a lot worse over tgr last few years. I have tried various alternatives but none function properly. Live traffic routing is a big problem for alternatives. I have tried Magic Earth and Nunav but had to revert back to Google Maps in both cases.
Controversial opinion: Apple Maps has far superior navigation currently. As in it will actually give correct lane guidance and haven’t directed me to the wrong place yet (Google Maps suggested the wrong ferry terminal recently, lol)
Also tried a few alternatives but a lot of the free apps have given the same strange directions as Google, or missed important shit like one way road directions.
Apple Maps does not update their map as frequently though.
I drive a lot for work and frequently have to go into neighborhoods that are currently being built or were built 1 to 2 years ago. Even the ones that finished construction over a year ago either do not have the addresses in the correct place, or one just flat out shows up as an empty field with no roads despite being fully finished. This is very fun at midnight on a Saturday when the builder decided to put all the house numbers as engraved numbers on grey bricks built into the garage corner.
Google Maps on the other hand will take me to where I need to go nearly all the time.

Live traffic routing is hard to do when you aren’t installed on every device by default and using google’s invasive services to get ya position
What about Waze? I think it’s okay just Google maps with extra steps and less routes to choose from.
Waze is literally just Google Maps with different route settings.
But maybe those route settings are exactly what they are looking for.
