I don't know what Uber did to make their implementation of GPS so terrible. Google maps can definitely have issues at times in Chicago but I rarely see an Uber driver use the built-in mapping. They use Google maps.

Side note on Uber express, if it says northeast corner, it will always be the southwest corner.

Lyft doesn't even have their own maps. Drivers get to pick between Waze or Google Maps [1].

Google Maps is so much better than anything else.
