Directions always open from google maps

I can’t click any links to get Apple Maps to work. They all open with google. Even without the google maps app. It just opens online then tries to redirect me to getting the google maps app. I’ve checked all my setting for the default app to be maps but it still doesn’t work. It is really frustrating. If I use Siri, it opens in Apple Maps but that’s the only way it works. It is getting frustrating to not be able to use the phones default map app.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

Hello there,

For issues with an app not launching as expected you may try using the steps here: If an app on your iPhone or iPad stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open - Apple Support

1. Close and reopen the app

Force the app to close. Then open the app to see if it works as expected.

2. Restart your device

Restart your iPhone or restart your iPad. Then open the app to see if it works as expected.

3. Check for updates

To see if updates are available for the app, open the App Store, tap your profile icon, then scroll down to see if updates are available. If updates aren't available for the app, update the software on your iPhone or iPad.

4. Delete the app, then redownload it

Delete the app. When you do this, you might lose data that was stored in the app. Then redownload the app. Then check to see if the problem with the app is fixed.

Cheers.
