There is a problem reported by many Apple maps user
that their saved favourite location just disappeared all of a sudden from the
maps A users had created about 80 location in the maps which were shown for few
days normally but one day all maps location were missing. When the user again
adds the location, the issue reoccurs again after few days. This seems to very
poor side of Apple maps as one side Apple is launching its new “Apple Map
Connect” while its function are suffering from many bugs. Some users have face
the problem when they use carPlay app, all the times time when connect phone to
Car Play now, the favourite are gone. This appears to be a bug or fault from
apple side however do have some possible workaround to fix the missing maps favourite
locations.
1. Apple server Issue: The problem could be in apple server which are not
letting your phone know your favourite location. In this case please wait for
some time/days and check if the location loads back in your phone.
2. Take backup : If that doesn't get your favourites back, you can try
restoring a recent backup from when you still had these favourites. Restore
from backup : https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204184
3. Fix for CarPlay issue: if you are facing the issue while using the carPlay
app, you can try below workaround:
-Connect
the phone to Car Play
-open Maps (no
favourites)
-leave phone
connected and close Maps on the phone
-Re-open Maps
from Car Play
-Favourites
come back!!!
-Please
do carefully as it is a distraction while driving but much less so.
4. If you have too much trouble due to this issue you can
use Google Maps for doing all the work.
5. We will suggest you to take backup of your location in
notes apps, just in case the problem is reoccurring again and again. The issue seems to be clearly from Apple side however there are official statements made Apple in this regards but a fix from apple is much awaited as this is creating many troubles to apple iphone users.
