Help Google Maps is Extremely Slow, Causes Lag Everywhere in Device

[NickStevensCleveland]

Hi all,

I'm on a Galaxy Alpha, Android 5.0.2. When I open Maps to try to navigate somewhere, it pretty much paralyzes my phone. There's a lag with each tap of the screen, to the point that I'll even press the home or power buttons and nothing will happen for about ten seconds. It's as though my phone seizes up in panic when I confront it with having to open Maps. It's gotten so bad that it, if I have to figure out where I'm going, I have to just sit for five minutes and wait to reach the actual navigation screen. I've cleared the data and cache and it hasn't helped. What is this?

Best,
Nick
