Comment on Left Apple Maps this week for Magic Earth
stoy@lemmy.zip 4 days agoIt warned me about something called “static camera” or similar, where there are none.
It also warned me about my speed being too high, at that time it was accurate, but later I saw the speedlimit display show the wrong information.
The speedometer is more prominantly displayed in Magic than in Google Maps, it shows on a dark black background while Google maps has their speed info so that it blends into the background, making it less distracting, also Maps shows it only when I am actively navigating, Magic shows it constantly.

What they mean by that (whether it’s accurate or not is another question) is a speed camera or a red light camera that’s located in a fixed spot, as opposed to a mobile speed camera that might be pointed out the back of a police van, or handheld by a cop standing on the side of the road.

I suspected as much, but in the decade I have been living here, there has never been a camera in that area…
