MapQuest, an online map service with about 20 years, is having an unexpected return to success, surpassing Google Maps on the App Store. The application, which seemed destined to disappear from the memory of older users, is gaining popularity again among users.
The article title mentions that MapQuest "said no to Trump," suggesting the company took some position against the former US president, although the article appears cut off and it's not possible to understand the full details of this decision.
This resurgence of MapQuest represents a surprising turnaround in the digital map services market, where Google Maps has dominated for years. The company managed to attract users again, possibly through a strategy that includes ideological positions that resonated with part of the audience.
The article suggests that MapQuest made choices that differentiated it from the competition, whether for political or strategic reasons, managing to regain relevance in the navigation and maps application market.
