Are there differences using Agenda Nav with Apple, Google, Waze?
There are a few differences relevant to Agenda Nav between these apps, designated as pros (+) and cons (-) below.
Apple Maps:
(+) Nav apps can have small differences in what each considers the route between locations, particularly if you have any special route options set in a navigation app. Since inRoute uses Apple’s routing data, the specific route(s) chosen by Apple Maps should most closely match the route(s) shown within inRoute.
(-) Tapping a notification to start navigating the next leg of a route requires tapping Start to begin navigating the leg. This provides an opportunity to look at an overview of the route and potentially use an alternate route, but Waze is faster to start navigating the next leg, by immediately starting navigation when the notification is tapped and discarding any previous leg’s navigation.
(-) If you tap a notification to start navigating the next leg of a route while Apple Maps considers the previous leg still in navigation (e.g. you’re at a destination but it’s 100 feet from where Maps believes it’s located so it’s still technically navigating), you must first tap the End Navigation button before tapping the Start button to navigate the next leg. Waze is faster to start navigating the next leg, by immediately starting navigation when the notification is tapped and discarding any previous leg’s navigation.
Google Maps:
(-) Tapping a notification to start navigating the next leg of a route requires tapping Start to begin navigating the leg. This provides an opportunity to look at an overview of the route and potentially use an alternate route, but Waze is faster to start navigating the next leg, by immediately starting navigation when the notification is tapped and discarding any previous leg’s navigation.
(-) If you tap a notification to start navigating the next leg of a route while Google Maps considers the previous leg still in navigation (e.g. you’re at a destination but it’s 100 feet from where Maps believes it’s located so it’s still technically navigating), you must first tap the End Navigation button before tapping the Start button to navigate the next leg. Other Agenda Nav compatible apps either immediately start navigating when the notification is tapped (discarding any previous leg’s navigation), or require one tap on a Start button to begin navigation.
Waze:
(+) Navigation begins immediately after tapping the iOS notification. A route overview is shown that can be dismissed with the Go button, but it will automatically dismiss on its own.
