I can’t see buildings or do the cool 3D thing it’s just gray outlines with streets.

I live in Mumbai, India and tbh apple map has drastically improved here. I’ll take the liberty to say it’s sometimes even better than google maps.

Yeah I had to switch to Google Maps when I was in Japan. I’ve heard some people had success with Apple Maps there, but it got really confused about entrances and exits to subway stations and got me turned around or on the wrong street multiple times. No such issues with Google.
