For me i used google maps due to i can do a lot of customization.
And google advantage is their offer walking, driving, biking, and public transportation directions . Other than that in google maps i can differentiate between main road/highway and jalan taman easily due to google user interface color for maps. Because during navigation i used to count simpang jalan. |

I prefer Google maps. Somehow I find it easier to follow compared to Waze. Furthermore it gives alternative routes whereas Waze only recommends a single route.

HERE Wego or previously Nokia Map used to be superior to Google maps except for search function. Now, Google maps is pretty good.

I prefer Waze. Tried Google Maps before, not to say its bad but I just prefer Waze.
But sometimes when Waze cannot connect to GPS for whatever reason then I'll use Google Maps |

for finding places , I prefer google maps, because the routes that show in the apps is more clearer,
Waze is when I need to check the traffic, and waze always help to avoid the traffic more effectively. but many times waze unable to connect to gps or server |

Waze for navigation, if checking traffic conditions - usually Google Maps.

QUOTE(WiLeKiyO @ Feb 2 2020, 03:14 PM) My bad! Haven't used Waze for so long that I forgot about this. Still prefer the way Google Map shows all routes on the screen at the same time so that I can choose the route to take visually. Just personal preference. |

It is just which interface and feature you like. Google owns Waze. So, same map source.

Google Map tends to more accurate in predicting traffic jam in normal times.
