Hello everyone! Long story short, I switched from CalyxOS to iOS because the Pixel 5 was too big for me.

Now that I’m on iOS, I’d like to know if there was a way to use google maps anonymously/privately.

I used to use the GMapsViewer application on Fdroid. Today the solution I’ve found is to use Firefox focus and go to the Google Maps site, but it’s a bit of a mess to find a simple address.

Do you have another idea for me? Thanks in advance!

    Why not just use Apple Maps for now, until you find one that works better for you?

      Sadly in France, no one use Apple Maps. (Like iMessage haha, I know it’s a big thing in USA but not in europe)

        Try it. For me it works better than Google Maps. Another option to consider is Organic Maps.

        But why do you care if someone else is using it or not…? It’s more privacy centric than Google at least.

        Perso j’utilise Apple Maps pour trouver des points d’intérêt (restos, essence, etc) autour de moi et ça marche très bien ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        Ce n’est pas important que peu de gens l’utilise tant que la base de données d’Apple est à jour. Ce n’est pas comme si tu l’utilisais pour de l’info-trafic.
