Set Google Map as default instead of Apple Maps

Hello. Every time I open a location sent through WhatsApp, iPhone (14 plus) opens it in Apple Maps, and it sucks. I want to make Google Maps my default app. Can you help me, please?

Thanks.

iPhone 14 Plus, iOS 17

Unless there is a setting within WhatsApp that allows you to specify what mapping program it uses, no, there is no way to do what you want.
