I like how seemless it is to use Google Maps and how it links to other apps I have like Whatsapp. This makes it simpler to share places and addresses with people simply.

It has no support other than google. We can not index our stuff because we have no control since it is google's index. There is no stability of google APIs. If Google does not make money with API, they just close this product
