How to make google maps default on iPhone easily? Please share!
To make Google Maps the default on iPhone, you can't change the system-wide default directly, but you can set it for specific apps:
  • Set in browser/email apps: Use browsers like Chrome or email apps like Gmail, which allow setting Google Maps as the default for directions.
  • Use Shortcuts: Create a Siri Shortcut that opens addresses in Google Maps.
  • Set Chrome as the default browser (Settings > Chrome > Default Browser App), then links open in Chrome, which uses Google Maps by default.
 
To make Google Maps default on iPhone, you can't set it system-wide, but you can do this:
  1. Install Google Maps.
  2. Set it as default in apps that allow choice (e.g., Chrome, Gmail).

Apple doesn’t allow full default override yet.
