iOS defaults to Apple Map for directions - Can I force Google Maps which is installed?

I’m new to AppSheet and in trying out the National Parks app, when seeking driving directions, iOS wants to open in Apple Maps (which I do not have installed) instead of Google Maps (which I do have installed). Within the app, the map view displays just fine and appears to be using Google Maps to do so.

Are there settings or is there some code I can edit that will force driving directions to open in Google Maps on iOS devices? Not only do I like Google Maps better, I just don’t have space on my phone for both.

I found the problem. I hadn’t noticed that Google Maps had auto-uninstalled to save space. Once I re-installed, the driving directions link in the sample app opened Google Maps instead of looking for Apple Maps. Thanks for the push in the right direction, Steve.
