If only my dad could read maps. I drive a lot when we go on vacation together, but often have to do the navigation as well. Read paper maps too since I was a kid because both my parents are horrible at directions. Was basically their tomtom before it existed. I was able to track the position with my finger fairly accurately.

I don't mind navigating, but it sucks that he gets confused by it while insisting he does the navigation. Be it app or paper. I stay quiet and comply unless I expect the detour to be too much. He's got to get the hang of it sometime. Surely.
