Some more stuff that never seems to be getting fixed:

- When making turns in complex road netwrok, they don't zoom in. I can't tell you how many times I have taken wrong turns because zoom level is too coarse while making turns.

- They often give routes with way too many turnings as if making a turn has no cost. Combine this with above and in many places Google Maps is a hell to use.

- No one is still bothering to add select scenic route option. European map service like viamichelin.com does this very nicely. So many wasted road trips.

- Little things like after trip is "complete", they suddenly zoom out all the way. This is utterly nonsensical. Most of the time I still actually need to find the place in dense urban area after parking.

- The "Save" feature allows no annotation, icons, coloring. They even chose default color and icon so that its hard to distinguish.

- No way to find restaurants or businesses using more useful filters like most reviewed as opposed to stupid highest rating.
