Do you have a source that supports this claim?

I haven’t come across anyone using Apple Maps while living in Japan, most seem to use Yahoo! Maps or Google Maps.

The source was my experience living with Japanese friends in Japan for around a month. This was, however, quite a few years ago. I believe that the complexity of the Japanese street naming system may have had something to do with it.

Bold claim based on one month experience. May be living for 10 years and continuing to living here gives different impression.

It's sub par to google maps. As much as I would like to use it in Japan, but it is crappier than Google.

Noone in my circle with iphone uses it. Most of people are using Yahoo maps, which is way better than google and apple maps combined.

Outside of the US Japan is the most saturated Apple's market
