With a sea of navigation apps, it can be hard to tell which one provides the best service.

Since early 2017, Artur Grabowski, a senior manager of corporate development at Adobe, has been collecting data from Apple Maps, Google Maps and Waze in order to chart which service could get riders to their destination the fastest.  

And, after 120 trips, he concluded that Google Maps got him where he needed to go quickest.

Meanwhile, Waze promised the fastest drive time but often under-delivered, which meant users often arrived later than expected.
