None of the languages I've downloaded on Google Translate exceed 100mb. Both services support offline translations, but Google's execution is more efficient and data-friendly. It additionally can translate more advanced and complex walls of text without losing context. Google Translate has been around for many years, which enables the company to provide more accurate translations through a richer database. This makes complete sense, considering Apple has just entered this domain. That's how I ended up a prisoner to Google Maps. Apple's neither supports this nor street view in the region. The app displays the exact schedules, numbers, and stations of busses/metros you have to go through. I do have mobile data at all times, but I still like keeping an offline map available as a just in case thing.Īnother advantage of using Google's is navigation through public transport. Additionally, it doesn't support saving maps for offline navigation. While Apple Maps in Turkey is not as much of a ghost town as it is in Lebanon, it still isn't complete. Secondly, I don't speak Turkish, so I have to completely depend on maps to find my way around. For starters, Istanbul is gigantic - coming from a city as small as Beirut.
Last year I moved to Turkey, and that changed everything.
That's because the country is tiny, I was generally familiar with the areas associated with my routines, and I didn't do a lot of exploring on my own. However, as a local, I didn't depend on maps much. When I used to live in Lebanon, Apple Maps was pretty much useless.
Google Maps, especially in third world countries, is much more populated, detailed, and accurate than Apple's. This is a service that Apple struggles to compete with, relatively speaking.
