Apple Maps and Google Maps make it easy to find your way around town and back home again when you're done.
And nothing's more convenient than telling your map app to take you home with a single click — unless the app has you registered at the wrong home address.
Here's how to fix that by changing your home address for both apps on your iPhone.
How to change your home address in Apple Maps on iPhone
To find your home address, Apple Maps looks at the home address on your Contact Card – that's where you need to update it.
1. Open Apple Maps on your iPhone.
2. Under Favorites, tap Home.
3. Tap Open My Contact Card.
4. Scroll down until you see your home address information, Then, edit it to reflect your real home address.
5. Tap Done in the top right corner.
Now your home address will be updated in Apple Maps. If the location of your home address doesn't change immediately, close the app and then open it again.

5. In the pop-up, select Edit home.
6. Tap the X button in the text box at the top to clear the current home address.
