Is there any reason this is still active? I'm sure everyone that needs to know does know by now.

    Apple should stick to what it does best. We didn't need them to reinvent the wheel. Google Maps is far superior and we were all happy with it...

    I mean it's not optimised for iPad, it just runs the small iPhone version in the middle of the screen. Same thing happened with the YouTube app and they updated it last week.

    So glad this is here now.. just waiting for the iPad version. Google … So glad this is here now.. just waiting for the iPad version. Google themselves admit this is better than the iPhone version!



    Than the Android version, I think you meant to say. The design changes will be rolled back into Android soon enough I would have thought.

    THANK GOD! The Apple Maps is AWFUL! I'm a big Apple fan but their maps is an absolute failure, how it made it out to public release in this form I will never know,

    I am still on iOS 5 and probably will never update but I still downloaded this and it is really slick even better than the previous Google Maps for iOS. The directions it gives seem to be even better than a lot of other Sat Navs I have used. Will continue using it and see how it goes but probably the best freebie ever!

    excellent find

    Not as good as the google maps that was on iOS before
  31. Ozzark3's avatar
    I find Apple Maps pretty good, but Google maps is better for sure, thanks.

    Used it this morning on the way to work. Love how turn-by-turn works fine on this on my iPhone 4, yet the built-in Apple Maps doesn't have this feature. Crazy!

    Thank you OP! Been delaying the upgrade to ios6 because of this map fiasco, now I have no excuse
  39. ChrisUK's avatar
    I've got to disagree with the majority here, Google maps is crap compared to the iOS 6 maps.

    My house doesn't even exist on Google maps, it was built 6 years ago !!! iOS maps are far more upto date.
