Maps - Unfortunately Maps Has Closed

[jesse dog1]

If I do a search for a location more than one hour distance, I get a the message "unfortunately maps has stopped" . This only happens since I upgraded to maps 7.02, using android 4.1.1 on my HTC One S. If I do the same thing with a closer location, maps works fine. Help!!!!

I had the same problem yesterday but I was only traveling to a location about 15 minutes away. I turned my Galaxy S4 off and back on but that didn't do anything to fix the problem. I was completely unable to use Maps for navigation.

Try going to settings/applications and clearing the data for maps. If that doesn't work in the same screen there's an option to uninstall updates. Do that and reinstall updates to see if that fixes your issue. If not, report the problem to Google as it may be widespread.

thanks for the input, but already did those things, multiple times. How does one report this to Google?

I found the solution to my problem. I have the Big Font app set on Extra large, when I changed the size to large or any other size, maps works perfectly.

The new maps app is just horrible. But at least I'm consoled to know that it's crashing on others, too.
