I used Apple Maps Navigation a few minutes ago because I was to lazy to enter the destination in the car navigation system. And so I got really annoyed of Apple since all directions were 200m to late. I really like the feature where the phone remembers the position of the parked car.

It would be nice if I could send the destination from phone to car in a simple way (no route, just the destination), but this might only work with really new cars.

Tesla allows you to send an address from the Maps app to your car (via the share menu). It’s one of my favorite features. I have no idea why other manufacturers wouldn’t replicate that experience.
It took some time for me to adjust - Apple Maps shows your position exactly where you are, Google Maps shows your position in a few seconds in the future, which gives you more time to react. Once you realize the difference, it's much easier to use Apple Maps.
Gmaps remembers where you parked your car too.
Apple maps also does this
isn't that what the comment i'm replying to just said?
oop--yep! sorry. I must not have read either comment carefully
