Google maps on iPad
Has anyone tried viewing the maps.google.com website on an iPad? When I try it, it hangs right when it should be showing me directions. It lets me enter start and end points, but then nothing. That...

You should download the actual *new* Google Maps app, instead of trying to use Google maps via the Safari browser.
The new Google Maps app on iOS (iPad's operating system) works great and I am very pleased with it.
Do you have an app that allows waypoints (ie go from A to B by way of C)? I like to use that to make it show me time and distance for a particular route. The web site allows that.
Sorry, didn't see that requirement ... The new iOS Google Maps app does allow you to pick from multiple routes, but I did not see a way to add waypoints, or intermediary points along the way. I also like this feature on the PC. I accomplish this, on a PC using the website, by dragging the route ... it updates the directions/mileage/time of arrival. Wish they did put this feature into the app... Maybe it is there and we just haven't figured out how to do it???
When using the app, I just go from current location to the first place, then once there, do the same to the next place, and so on.
Sorry for my confusion.
