I do not use satellite view either, but my reason is mostly to do with the higher data usage (I’m on a pay-as-you-go plan). Even still, I don’t think that there are many advantages to the satellite view especially considering the fact that roads can be obscured, and you still see the shapes of houses, traffic lights, and stop signs on Google Maps even without satellite view. Perhaps I am biased because I grew up in a place where there are trees everywhere, but it doesn’t seem very useful to me.
