If I choose to drive on anything except the freeway, I get told the road is closed, drive it anyway (the road is, after all, not closed) and spend the entire journey with a mapless screen. Great 4G+ reception the whole way. Happens all over NSW. Weird.

    This might be a very rare case if you’ve had the issue with different providers.

    I 4x4 a lot, in regional NSW, and find that my pre-loaded Google maps show almost every single trail we’re on vs my friends with Apple or factory maps.

    Either way, my comment was just tongue in cheek, do you remember the stories of Apple Map directing people into the ocean? 🤣

      Yeah, I had all the maps, and the connection, I wasn’t lost, just the GPS was lost. I don’t 4X4, I’m just rural.

      Yeah, there was a website called “TomTom is trying to kill me” many years ago, no idea if it still exists but I guess I should go look it up!
