I had this issue on the S24 Ultra and subsequently also have the same issue on my brand new Galaxy S25 Ultra. Why Samsung did this, or will not address it, is unfortunate because I am going to return a $1200 phone over a trivial matter.
Here is the issue:
Samsung has their own Calendar app. It is titled Calendar and can be opened on the app screen. Now before you get confused, this is not the same as the Google Calendar app. This is Samsung's own built-in Calendar app that is managed through their own app store and pre-installed on virtually all Samsung devices (i.e. Galaxy).
I find Samsung Calendar app to be more visually appealing than Google Calendar app and it integrates well with OneUI. The major problem is this:
It uses Foursquare for mapping. Why? Why would you not use Google Maps? Foursquare does not work inside the Samsung Calendar app, plain and simple; and how this made it past quality control is mind-boggling. Really Samsung, how did this happen?
The other problem, it appears, is that you cannot disable Foursquare as it seems to be integrated into OneUI or the Samsung Calendar app; additionally you cannot switch from Foursquare to Google Maps for mapping purposes when you create a new event.
This is easily demonstrated by opening the Calendar app and entering in an address and clicking on Map. From here you will see where the frustation begins. It does not work. I am in Arizona, entered an address and it suggested some place in Australia.
Please fix this Samsung. Remove Foursquare and use Google Maps.
I agree with you that Samsung calendar is more appealing! I've used that calendar for years and years and I hope they don't change it - already they've become more like Google calendar and I'm happy they stopped moving closer....for now. This is the first time I'm hearing about Foursquare. I'll look it up, safely. I don't want anything that's gonna mess me up.
I have 5 Galaxy devices (i.e. S24, S24 Ultra, etc.). Everytime I launch the Samsung Calendar app, create a new Event, then enter an address it uses Foursquare.
