Google Maps
Voice navigation unavailable after app update, unsafe while driving

Much to my horror; I was in the city (I live in a rural area, and travel to the city often) and discovered while driving my reliable, 'second brain' google maps voice assistant was not available. I almost had an accident as I tried to quickly figure out where the directions were. Having to enter where you are is ridiculous; google knows where I am; not being able to use my voice activitated command to enable the voice direction was a risk to not only my safety, but everyone around me! Why has this been changed? I am forty-five years old; a professional that has to travel often for work, lost my husband four years ago, and have been thankful for every workshop I've attended because I could get there with the wonderful assistance of the previous google maps Navigation App. I have a conference to attend in two weeks, and will be frantically researching alternative apps because I hate the new update. I've been thankful for the assistance of Google Maps for over four years... Why on earth would you do this to people? Not cool!!!)
