I'm currently on ios 11 and I need to have Google maps work when I click on any address.. Currently it defaults to Apple maps.. Tried deleting apple map but it asks me to reinstall... Here apple maps *****, so is there a way to make google maps default instead???
Also, how come apple maps has 'no reviews' on the app store?... Fishy???
Setting default apps is not supported by iOS. Sorry.

It's part of iOS (System Software) not part of iOS App Store.
If you remove Apple Maps from your iPhone then it will not be available to use in CarPlay.
Well, so that's not very nice.
What about Apple maps showing no reviews in the App store? How is that possible?
Apple Maps is part of iOS.

It is possible because Apple has made it that way.
