ZDNET's rigorous testing reveals which navigation app dominates in 2025, dissecting critical technical differentiators like real-time rerouting algorithms, offline capabilities, and AI integration. Google Maps edges ahead with broader utility, but Waze's specialized driver-first approach still excels in key areas.

A simple experiment with Utah addresses reveals how Google Maps' geocoding system can misinterpret minor numerical changes, redirecting users up to 30 miles away. This exposes critical limitations in handling approximate addresses—a common real-world scenario—and highlights the lack of user feedback mechanisms.
