another stupid question
do people actually use the maps apps on phones?

I don't use it often, but I did just use it a couple of days ago to find a specific restaurant close by.

There are Android based Head Units coming out for cars now that use the Google Maps for GPS Navigation. Google has made changes to the app to allow it to cache entire routes without needing to maintain data connections all the time. So it works quite well as an independent GPS system.
