Deleted the Google Maps app from my iPhone. For a year or two now, I've been using the Google Maps app on my iPhone in a logged-out state. It started when I changed phones at some point, and Google Maps wanted me to log in again. I thought I'd try without, even though it meant leaving behind the thousands of saved "favourites" I'd accumulated over 10-20 years. Even before that I was having trouble with it, as Google in their infinite wisdom only let you use 3,000 "want to go" places. I hit the limit without any warning or error message, and didn't notice until I went back and saw the number still at 3,000. Once I deleted some old ones, the newly-saved ones reappeared. Great UX, that. Anyway, this morning it started giving me "Unsupported link" errors ("Google Maps can't open this link") when clicking the "maps.app.goo.gl" links from the very same app, saved by me or shared by others. Perhaps it's a new change because I'm not logged in, I'm not sure. Either way, the only way to "fix"…
