Apple Maps Not Rerouting

I use apple maps via CarPlay to show me the routes to destinations. However if I deviate from the original route, maps does not realize that I am taking a new route and just asks me to return to the original route. I am on iOS 14.0.1 on an iPhone XR and I have checked settings, maps, location- while using the app.

The map shows where I am and still shows the original route, but does not realize I am deciding to change my route. Does anyone have any ideas please on how to fix this please?

Hello Stormbluexo,

Maps is a great feature, and it's very important that it works as expected. With Maps not updating the directions, is it still highlighting a road to take, and providing directions on how to return to the original route? Does this issue happen if your iPhone is not connected to your vehicles radio and using CarPlay?

If so, this may be expected if you have Maps set to find the quickest route, or to avoid tolls for example. If you stop the route, and attempt to redo the directions does it update to a new route?

We also want to confirm, are you using the steps outlined in the following article?

Use Siri, Maps, and the Maps widget to get directions on iPhone

Have a great weekend.
