hopz Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Google Maps has made a change to its Google Maps. Maybe it is only for those with Macs, but roads that are not in metropolitan areas are now shown with white roads on white background. Duh! This means if you are trying to make a route or just find a place... it is virtually impossible. If you have this issue please send feedback to Google. To do this, open Google Maps and on the upper lefthand side under the 3 bars/lines scroll down to the place there you can give feedback. If you have mobile devices using iOS the roads are still visible. If this issue is also happening on PC based systems please let me hear that too. I appreciate your comments and if there is any way to make the roads show up please let me know. Thanks Link to comment
TEWKS Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 On an iPad you see the roads as before but when you try to scroll in or out the screen goes white. A pay to play attempt? Pat Link to comment
lkraus Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) I'm not seeing this on my PC's or my Android phone. Interstates and major highways are yellow, main roads are white on medium gray background, small roads are light gray, becoming white as I zoom in and the road names become visible. Contrast is better if I select satellite view or (on the phone) terrain views. Edited September 12, 2016 by lkraus Link to comment
hopz Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Pat, what version of iOS are you running? Under Settings, tap General, thence "Version"... mine is 9.3.5, which I think is the latest. Link to comment
TEWKS Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Thanks Bob, that's exactly the problem! I never updated my iPad but the family version was. Maps works fine on theirs. Guess an update is due as soon as I unload some pics. Pat Link to comment
