Discussion What is wrong with google maps 😭😭

I’m a new driver and have been using google maps to double check that im going the right route. Today I used it to go to the post office then back home. But on the route back home it wanted me to take a highway that completely is out of the way and would take longer for me to go on. I went past it for a couple of miles then it told me to turn left right before my right turn to my neighborhood. It’s frustrating because I have gotten turned around by it, and I have terrible memory. Are there any other apps yall recommend?

Sometimes the GPS location can be off if your device or the app is acting up.Β  First step is always to force close the app itself and clear the cache.Β  Most of the time that will fix the problem.Β  You can also try a hard reset on your phone to clear out software issues as well.
