I’ve stopped using Maps apps. I started by gradually relying on them less and now I no longer feel concerned about not having instant access to them. Rather, I feel much more confident about asking for help, using signs, etc. Feels good.

@SimonWoods Can I recommend Wayfinding by Michael Bond 📚?

It strongly suggests that you’re making the right decision for a number of cognitive health reasons.

@adders Added to my to-read list, thanks! I certainly feel less anxiety not having to reach for the computer in this instance.

@JMaxB I began learning to drive two summers ago and felt immense satisfaction at memorising the local area, as well as piecing together the larger regional map. One of the things I’m going to attempt to make room for in the house is a map collection; we’ve never owned any but I do sometimes find myself easily drawn into online maps for different reasons of an idle nature.
