iMessage, location-sharing map style

I live out in the absolute sparse country and my partner and I share our location with each other in iMessage. However, since the update, the map view has changed to the incredibly sparse, like, 3-color version of the map.


I’ve always used the satellite version and that’s what both my apple and Google maps are set to, so I don’t know why the iMessage map is this way.


Essentially, that map style is useless to me being out in the country because it doesn’t recognize half the properties/streets of rural Ireland.


it really is just since the latest update (iOS 17 I think?) — any fix for this?

iPhone 13, iOS 17
