How to fix maps app on iphone 5?

I'm having the same problem while using maps and its really starting to piss me off. When I drop a pin on a certain location like my house, and later try to get maps to direct me to house from another location it says my home is my current location. I know this is confusing, but basically when it says "current location to destination" I select home as my destination, and it says my home is my current location. This has happened numerous times and it is very annoying! If someone could help me with that, that would be great!

If all you're trying to do is get directions home, then all you need to do is save your home address in contacts and then it should also be saved in maps. If this doesn't work, when your at home, click on the blue dot that represents your location, and then bookmark it and save it as home. Then you will be able to tell Siri, "Take me home." and she will be able to get your directions. If you want to go to a pin, all you need to do is drop the pin where you want to go and chose "directions to here" and then it will take you there from your current location. If all else fails, download google maps which was placed on the app store a couple of weeks ago.

  • Old GPS or iPhone maps or google maps app? I'm going to drive from IL down to SC and I don't trust my old garmin nuvï 255 nor iphone maps lol:-) GPS update is $50 which I'm not going to spend. So has anyone used iphone maps or google maps app on long distance trips? Or I just better use old gps?
  • IPhone updated! Apple maps streetview? I was amongst the idiots who updated there iPhone and am now stuck with the mediocre apple maps! One of my fav parts of the maps previous was the streetview to see landmarks and such! Is there a way of getting this on the new maps?
  • IPhone Maps app says my destination is 6,719 miles away when it's just down the street? When I attempt to get directions to any location, my Maps app tells me the destination is over 6,000 miles away. As if I'm traveling across oceans. When the location is less than 20 miles away.so when I go to overview the route, it zooms all the way out to almost an entire world map. Then I have to zoom my way back in to find the directions. Not a huge deal but it is super inconvenient! How do I fix this?
  • IPhone: Google maps or default apple maps? I personally like the default maps, at least the OS 7 version. (like everyone else who had a brain, I hated the OS 6 version) Which one do you guys like more? Which is more popular now?
