Is this a new behavior (entering an address far away)

6 Upvotes

One thing that always drove me nuts - say I am traveling to a far away city and find a restaurant and I want to see how far away it is from something in the city I am traveling to. You’d hit directions and immediately it would calculate directions from your current location, so you’d have to stop that, enter a new address and have it done (this would happen in places like Hawaii so it would helpfully tell me no directions from the continental US were available).

Now it seems to not include the “directions” button but instead “Plan” which prompts you to add a starting point.

New? Did I miss this before?

Brining up directions - Tapping car icon is inconsistent

I use Apple Maps to look up driving directions to a given set of coordinates. I use Apple Maps in offline mode where I have downloaded maps for offline use. The iPhone quickly brings up Maps with the location of the coordinates, but many times when I tap the blue horizontal button containing the icon of the car and the estimated travel time, nothing happens. There are times when I tap over and over again, and the routes are not displayed. Other times, the routes are displayed right away. Does anyone have an idea why it can take so long to bring up the different routes? Even after repeatedly tapping the icon?

Customizing wording when AppleMaps “shares eta”?

0 Upvotes

Title pretty much says it all, wondering how/where I can customize what the “sharing eta” text message says?
I remember being able to do it a few iOS versions back, currently on 27, cant find the option anywhere?
