Volume on Google maps turn directions iOS 7.0.3

Is there any way of increasing the volume for turn directions on the above. My research so far indicates a volume control on the bottom RH corner of turn directions but this does not appear on my screen.

Settings>Maps>navigation voive volume?
That option is not available with 7.0.3

Google maps turn by turn directions no longer interrupts iTunes music player in iOS7

I often use Google Maps app when I travel while simultaneously listening to music. I have my iPhone connected to my car stereo via the Lightning port. In iOS6, when Google would give turn by turn directions the music volume would duck and the voice guided navigation would play through the car stereo. After updating to iOS7, this feature no longer works. With both iTunes and Google Maps open, the music volume is always dimmed and voice guided navigation is always off.
I do not notice this issue with Apple's Maps app. So far it appears to work properly and I am using this as a work around. However there are several reasons I favor Google Maps as a superior solution for the moment. For example, if I ask for directions to a specific location such as a local business Google is able to provide this information 90% of the time. By comparison, the same query with Siri usually results in having to search the web for an address first and then having to go back and ask for directions to that specific street address. It is a minor inconvenience, but it is enough of a hassle that I tend to stick with the better content of Google Maps for now.
Perhaps this bug is iOS7 related or perhaps the issue is with the Google Maps app. Either way, I am reporting because I'd love to see it fixed. I have noticed several bugs (this being one of many that I am reporting) since upgrading to iOS7 which has been very disappointing. I am a huge Apple advocate and this has not been the experience of "It just works" that I have come to expect from my Apple products. It is because I care so much about the Apple ecosystem that has made my work and play so much more enjoyable that I will take the time to report these in hopes that Apple will take notice and that subsequent updates will address these issues.

I never did. Partly I believe it's the interaction with my car's bluetooth connection and instructions it sends the phone when they connect. It seems like if I actively QUIT all applications that could play audio (SiriusXM, Podcasts, Music), then I can get the directions without any music. (That said, the SiriusXM app doesn't always play nice. If any of these are open, not even playing, then they start up when I select bluetooth audio on my car stereo. But I still can't tell the audio to stop without it muting either Google Maps or Apple's Maps. They both behave the same way.

Script error message when printing google maps driving direction into PDF

My system; Win 7/ 64bits/IE 9 both 32 and 64 bits/Adobe Acrobats 10.1.1. Pro
Intial problems in printing web sites into PDF files has been resolved when I upgraded into 10.0.1 after having installed IE9.
However, with 10.1.1. version, I noticed that when I tried to convert google maps results for a driving direction (From A to B), script error message showed up and I could not convert it into PDF. I tried both IE 9 32bits and 64 bits version, but both failed to do it. Please fix the problem for the next updates.
Thanks

You might try running CHKDSK on the disk to where you try to save the file. You might have a corrupted file directory or a damaged track on that disk. I urge you to backup what you can before trying this.

Google maps "get directions" between two points stopped working in firefox

When using google maps to find directions between two points "Get Directions" it will just sit there loading... never finishing and showing the routes between the locations.
This used to work fine about a month ago. I have not done anything, expect update Firefox.

I can still get the basic directions to work in Google Maps, but recently the 3D driving directions has stopped working, and I'm pretty sure it stopped just about one Firefox update back. I realize this function is gravy to many people - a toy - but for someone who uses visual cues it has been extremely useful for imprinting the information in my mind, familiarizing myself with the route ahead of the drive. When I am traveling without a 'navigator' - a passenger who can read the directions as I drive - this is a huge help. Today I got a message about updating the GoogleEarth plugin, which I did - twice! Still no 3d directions, though suddenly the GG 3d driving simulator works. This has to be a FF problem :-(

Is there a way to have all google maps "get directions" links forward to Apple Maps?

The internet browser keeps opening too Google Maps instad of Apple Maps when I click "get directions" even inside Apps like Starbucks which is supposed to be integrated with Passbook etc. Is there a hack or workaround I can use to forward all info for Apple Maps instead?

Has anyone had major overheating with iphone 4 running the new google maps app on IOS 6?

Used the app today and the iphone 4 really burned up fast (less than 2 minutes)... Was wondering if it was an app issue or the fact that i may had have a connection problem with my 3G and it warmed up because of that..

i found a solution for this issue when google maps shows you an empty map error message cannot reach server. Click on the icon next to search and you are supposed to be presented with your profile, if not u will have an empty space. click on that space, then the "gear " Icon and logout.
restart your iphone then strat google maps again and log back in.
apparently this is happening when you change your google acount password or enble or disable 2 step verification.

Can no longer operate other apps when Google Maps is giving directions

I have an iPhone 4s and just recently upgraded to IOS 8.02. I use Google Maps extensively for traveling, along with FStream (Internet radio app). Up until this update (and a Google Maps update), I was able to reduce Google Maps en route, bring up FStream and choose another station. Now, when Google Maps is directing me somewhere (using Directions), when I pull up FStream, there is a blue banner on top of the app that says "Google Maps is using your location." While this is there, you are unable to operate any of the controls (buttons) on the app (and, I'm guessing, any other app).
Now, having also used both Apple Maps (the ill-fated release) and Waze, I know Apple Maps also restricted usage of other apps while it was providing directions. And, Waze wouldn't allow you to even recite (using the mic) or type in an address while moving (obviously a safety consideration, which I can understand). I think they reversed that decision in a later release. But, Google Maps (up until now) at least let you switch between open apps and (in my case, in FStream) change stations.
My questions are:
1. Is this an IOS 8 "improvement" or a Google Maps "improvement" (i.e. how do I complain to)?
2. And, other than having to temporarily turn off "directions" in Google Maps in order to be able to switch stations, is there another fix to this?
Thanks.
Richard

Well, I think I've narrowed it down somewhat. In experimenting with other apps while Google Maps is giving directions, I find that most other apps are working, even with the blue Google Maps banner on top. So, in summation, I believe it is the old, out-dated, FStream app (which was last updated in 2010) that might be the culprit. The search begins for another Internet radio app where you can manually enter the station URL.

My Google Map was Changed by iWeb to The MobileMe web page!!!?????

I had a previously published site that included a Google map for directions. After editing a different page in my site and publishing, iWeb changed my google map to Apple's corporate address and the map was replaced by the mobileme web page. I have tried to overrite the page, deleted the page and constructed a new one but I can only get the mobileme webpage. It won';t accept my requested address...Any suggestions or anyone else having this problem?

It's done that to mine as well. That's not the only issue that has arisen since the transition to MobileMe. Based on what I'm reading here in the discussions, it looks like there aren't any solutions and most likely won't be until Apple releases either an iWeb update or does some serious work on the iWeb hosting feature of the MobileMe service. It's frustrating. I'm sure they're aware of the problem and are trying to solve it.

Google Maps API for flash not working on real device iPad

I use flash builder 4.5.1 to build app for Google Maps API for iOS (map_flex_1_20.swc), and it is working well even on the simulator on PC, but after I generate the IPA use FB4.5.1, and install on iPad , it not working at all, only show a while screen.(I used the TabbedViewNavigatorApplication, the botton Tabbar is working, I can switch the page, but on the maps page show nothing)
I also try the code on Flash CS5.5 using map_1_20.swc , when on the PC debug, it works well,(swf files), but install the AIR ipa on the iPAD, show nothing only a white sceeen.
anyone met this problem?

You can also use the MapQuest Mobile Flash Maps API. It's supported by MapQuest and does not need any work-arounds in order to work with the Flash Platform. It also takes advantage of the "build once, deploy anywhere" functionality in Flex 4.5+. MapQuest provides a demo app for Android and iOS and has the source code available for download, too.

Google Maps Local in Km instead of Miles

When I use Google maps for directions and navigation it properly shows everything in miles but if I use the Local feature to search for a restaurant or attraction the distance is in Km and I see no way of setting it to miles. Has anyone else had this problem? Have you resolved it?

I am in Quincy MA, USA. Using Google maps in the upper left corner there is a pull down menu with options like navigation, local, offers, my places, etc. If I use navigation all my directions are in miles. If I use my places, local, or offers the miles listed to that location from my current location are in metric. But if I then select the location and choose get direction the directions are in U.S. miles again since I am using Navigation. I stopped into the Avon store and the salesperson was stumped.

Google Map Phone vs. Mac

My experience is that often (but not always) the iphone Maps demands more detail to get "Directions" than the Google Maps on a Mac or PC interface. For example, on Mac the Maps will find the directions using "Blythe, CA" for the start and "Cracker Barrel TEmpe AZ" for the destination. On the iphone Maps this returns "Driving directions could not be found between these locations." For this reason also a Google Map Driving Directions link in an e-mail will not open automatically in iphone Maps.
I would have thought that Google being the Map host and the phone requiring at least as much flexibility as setting at a desktop.
Is there something I can do to be smarter with my searches, or just live with it?
Thanks much

Thanks for the helpful feedback. I've extended a text box to leave a little room below the map.
My Firefox still fails to display the map. I've just reinstalled it from a freshly downloaded DMG file of 2.0.0.6. And I've trashed the only prefs file I could find. (There must be other config files somewhere else, because after I trashed the prefs Firefox still remembered my home page etc.).
I have no idea what's wrong with my Firefox, but it's good to know that it works for other people.

As much as I love turn-by-turn directions, I'm very disappointed in the quality of map directions from Apple in iOS-6

I love the turn-by-turn directions. But some of the mistakes the new iOS-6 maps (the Apple version that replaces the Google Maps app) - they're the sign of an immature product. Are other people finding the same?
Examples of what I got int the Apple iOS-6 maps application:
1) In Hood River, Oregon (with location awareness on), I searched for Tucker -- I was expecting to get Tucker County Park (3 miles away). The results I got were Tucker, Georgia, Tuckers Rock, Bellingen NSW (Australia), Tucker Hills, Brooksville FL. Totally useless. I was looking for results near me, not world wide. Google maps immediately found the one closest to me as the first result (the correct location, Tucker County Park).
2) In Rockaway Beach, Oregon, I searched for directions to Nehalem Bay State Park campground. The iPhone iOS-6 mapping app gave me directions to a location in Brighton, Oregon, across the bay from the state park - 9.5 miles short of the actual destination (you have to drive around the bay to get there). The comment at the top of the map was "This route ends on the road nearest to the selected destination.". Of course, Google maps got me all the way there, taking me the rest of the distance around the bay, through all the turns and intersections to get me to my destination.
Am I the only one thinking - cool product, but not yet ready for prime time? What happened Apple? This is very disappointing, and not up to snuff.

Apple is aware, and they have issued a statement to that effect. They're working it.

Although I have been using Google Maps App in India for a while now (without any issues) but I still want to know if there are any plans for launching Turn by Turn Navigation under the OOTB Map App for iOS?

It has been quite a while since Apple came up with Map App of their own and should be releasing improved maps with more capabilities in India.

No one here can answer your question, as there is no one from Apple here, & no one here represents Apple or speaks for Apple.

IOS 6 updated on my 3GS phone. The maps works well but does not give spoken turn by turn directions. Any ideas on how to make this work?

Installed iOS6 on my 3GS phone. The maps app works well, but does not give spoken turn by turn directions.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Go to http://www.apple.com/ios/maps/ and look at the bottom: Turn-by-turn navigation is available only on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, and iPad 2 or later with cellular data capability. Flyover is available only on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad 2 or later, and iPod touch (5th generation). Cellular data charges may apply.
You can always use the WAZE app like I do.
