I've been trying to find an alternative to #GoogleMaps that is not just a direction-finder.
What I mean is, I am super frustrated with Google Maps because I can't make it show me things outside my local area (and I see that many others have had this same issue). This is even though I have NEVER let it "use your current location." So for example, say I want to see CVS locations in entire USA or even just in Pennsylvania.
No matter how I phrase it, it will ONLY show my locations in my county.
