Yeah I posted about that here (this just bit me) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30757193 and I was flagged to oblivion.

Looks like I really need to keep a 3rd party nav app installed just in case!

Always. Here maps is a good backup solution. It allows you to download pretty much the entire world - if you have the space in your phone.

I always use Apple Maps, but once in a while if I'm in an unfamiliar city and the Apple Maps directions seem suspiciously weird, it is useful to have Google Maps app for a sanity check. (directions to a particular pier at the Seattle waterfront were insanely incorrect via Apple)

Try Organic Maps - offline-first OpenStreetMap app. It's really good!
