Am I the only one to switch back to Classic view ?

Tried the new version for the last month, didn't like it but thought i had no choice. If you press the wee ? on the bottom right hand side, a box pops up with the option to revert.

New version too slow, too much and many wee boxes popping up and down. Hope I can keep the old version till they realise new is crap.

I switched back to my atlas yesterday. Not slick at all.

Some things you can't do I don't think too, atleast not when I last used it, like adding multiple destinations etc, I am using the classic view too until the new one is not "beta" and has all the options needed...

It's so horrible to use now. I don't know how they do it, but google and youtube always seem to make their websites worse and worse

youtube is now google so that explains it changing for the worse...

You're right though, google maps of old was/is great, no reason to really change it that much and if it needed a rewrite to accommodate public transport functions etc well then so be it but atleast keep the same tried and tested user interface we can all get on with just fine
