Can’t delete Google Maps app on iPhone — only worked after offloading
I tried deleting the Google Maps app on my iPhone like I normally do with other apps. I held the icon, tapped “Remove App,” confirmed, but nothing happened. Then I went into Settings > General > iPhone Storage, selected Google Maps — and it just showed “Deleting…” forever.
What finally worked: I first chose “Offload App,” then after that finished, I tapped “Delete App” — and that actually removed it.
Not sure if this is a Google issue or an iOS glitch, but I’ve never had this problem with any other app.
iPhone 13, iOS 18
