My dad uses Google Maps, and he mentioned that it seems to be getting worse. Like, giving him directions that are obviously worse than alternatives. Has anyone else here experienced this?

    I assume the route calculations happen on device as they work in offline mode, but that doesn’t explain sending me the objectively slower way when it knows what the traffic is like

    Also my alternate route passes more businesses, meaning it’s not some “well advertise to him” bullshit

    I turned OFF the “prefer eco routed” setting thinking it might be that, but no dice
