Jesus, that is a gross way to inject advertising into turn-by-turn navigation.
Edit/update from 9to5google so this post does not spread what is apparently inaccurate information: https://9to5google.com/2024/07/08/google-maps-pop-up-quick-detour-ad/
This won’t always work, but I get it to stop changing the fucking route by putting it in airplane mode while I’m driving. It’s locked in to the route I picked, GPS still works, no distractions.
If you have to fight with software that much just to use it for its core function, it’s time to use something else.
Which GPS app do you use?
Apple Maps works great in my area but I hear that’s not true for everywhere. There are many other suggestions in this thread as well.
