Re: Is it me, or is MAPS+ more of a MAPS-
I agree that this App should be dubbed "Maps-" It works when it wants to but features and settings are non-existent for a "Paid" service. If it were free I probably still wouldn't use it. Unfortunately, I have to keep my connected service plan because my kids use the wi-fi for their iPads. I have resorted back to CarPlay for my navigation. I honestly think that this forum isn't monitored anymore because OnStar knows that Maps+ is sub par. They discontinued a bunch of services lately, maybe this is next! Good luck!7.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Is it me, or is MAPS+ more of a MAPS-
An update to my previous post... Nothing has changed as far as updates to the interface are concerned. The rotary knob on the console needs to be integrated, if you use your fingers to "Zoom" in on the map it only works if your at a stop as once you start moving, the arrow goes away and you have know idea where you are! OnStar, what ever department or vendor is responsible and providing this service NEEDS to be aware of these issues and get an update pushed out ASAP! Or better yet, give us a contact to directly address our concerns! I am a "No update" away from cancelling my service with you.8.7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Is it me, or is MAPS+ more of a MAPS-
I agree with werners1. I have been using Cadillac Maps+ since it became available on my 2022 XT4 and it is Sub Par at best! Rotary control in vehicle is not compatible, maps are way to small, POI's are years outdated and routing is poor when it comes to navigating to my home address. It brings me through a parking lot and wants me to drive over a curb to get to my home. I keep hitting "Poor Route" on the screen options and nothing has been done! No way to zoom in or out and have this functional. Great concept but a complete failure for me to keep using it. I have reverted back to Apple Maps on CarPlay until the following are fixed: Ability to use the rotary controller, use voice button on steering wheel for NAV commands (instead of launching alexa), Continually update POI's, control of zoom in/out to get a clear picture of route. Cadillac+ (GM Maps+) is NOT competitive with Apple, Google, Waze or factory navigation at all at this time! This is more like an entry level, never updated app that is useless based on its intentions and can be dangerous if you don't know exactly where you are going. If I didn't use other apps or connected services with OnStar, I would cancel my subscription until this is fixed.10KViews0likes1Comment
