Offline Apple Maps vs Offline Google Maps

I'm making this post to note some of the differences I've noticed between the two apps when using offline mode. Let me know if you find any other differences I might have missed.

Things that Apple Maps does that Google doesn't:

  • Walking and Public Transport routes.
  • Location details (Opening Hours, Phone Number, Ratings,…) only if cached on device, otherwise it won’t show anything other than the location.

Things that Google Maps does that Apple doesn’t:

  • Show phone numbers for all businesses (no need to be cached from what I can tell).
  • Less storage occupied for around the same location/area downloaded.
