Yesterday, I had this problem. I wanted to go to a new restaurant. Opened the Apple Maps app on my iPhone, I entered its address and tapped “Directions” then “Go”. Then I noticed that navigation was not working properly. What I mean by this is that the Maps could not find my exact location. Apple Maps was not updating my position as I move. Further the navigation was incorrect. It was showing the wrong places. I thought my location services was turned off. But it was not; in fact I opened the Google maps app, and its navigation was working properly.

Some users have also reported the same problem. Some have further stated that Apple Maps stopped working after updating to the latest version of iOS. Apple Maps is developed by Apple. It offers turn-by-turn navigation. It was released in 2012.

Apple maps not working loads but when I touch go nothing .
I get that too. If I delete the app and reinstall it, it will work once and then never again until I delete and reinstall it.
Tried all of these still doesn’t work. If I restart the phone the app will work for a couple seconds then crash. I can’t click on anything in the maps app. All other app work great other than SIRI which seems to be muted
