The entire point of using a map is the data. Who cares about the chrome of the app?

Well, for example, I won't use Google Maps for driving directions because of a chrome issue: The voice they use is about the same pitch as the background driving noise in my car, so it can be difficult to understand if I don't really crank the volume.

Apple Maps doesn't always find the fastest route, but at least I can understand what it's saying.
