IPhone – How to invoke navigation on Google maps using Siri

google mapsiphonemapsnavigationsiri

At the risk of getting a big NO,

Is there a way to use SIRI to invoke navigation on Google maps as opposed to the default Apple maps?

I have tried "Navigate to Chicago using Google maps", but Siri just treated "Chicago using Google maps" as the location itself.

Best Answer

Yes you can

Simply append "via transit" to your Siri query. Ie: Directions to Miami Beach, Florida via Transit.

Siri will determine your target location, and will give you a choice of transit apps. Tap Google Maps and you'll be on your way.

It appears these words also work:

  • by transit
  • using transit
  • via transit
