Does the Calendar app have a feature where, when you are looking at an appointment and click the location, it opens in (Google?) Maps? I've had this feature on all of my Android phones that I just took it for granted it was universal. Not finding it on an iPhone leads me to believe otherwise.

I cannot test it right now ...
If you set a location for the calendar event, it should display the map in the event, and then when you click the map thumbnail, the iPhone map app will open.
I am not certain you can have it use Google Map.
I'd rather be phishing!

Apple's iOS Calendar only opens in its iOS Map application;
ya gotta copy the address, open Google Maps, and past it in...

Yeah, that's what I found. Yuck!

You do know that your iPhone (Android) Answer was afforded you by the very person who created the first-ever "i"-naming convention of products and/or services used by Apple, yes?
Well, ya do now!

What? You mean the first iDiot? Well I never!

No, iHug you!
International HyperCard User Group, a "service" Apple directly infused cash into.
HyperCard made iDiots into "I DO IT"'S!

Though, really, the direct explicit qualifier that I'm an "iDiot" isn't appreciated.

Nope, it works as it should.
Tested on an iPhone 6 with iOS 11.
If you set the address in your calendar appointment, the Map App will open to the address, then click on the "directions" button to get the directions from your current location.

The OP asked for Google Maps and not Apples iAbortion Maps.

Mine does, but it goes to Bing maps.
Oh, wait, this is a Lumia. Carry on.

Hey David,
What made you switch to an iPhone?
I recently switched from a WP to Android.

Thanks.

Has been, is, and will continue to be. I currently have an HTC One M8.

Thanks. I noticed you are reluctant to give more details about how you happen to have an iPhone with you. I understand, so won't ask more questions on that.

If it's REALLY required to use Google Maps maybe try changing to Google Calendar for iOS.
