Isn't this what innovation is about? Finding ways of solving problems? Is forcing apps to make more efficient of their use of space such a bad thing?
From what I see, your users have 3 choices: They can use your app and use up their iCloud allotment, they can use your app and not upgrade, or they can upgrade and find a mapping app that is more efficient in its use of space.

- barista 15y agoI think this crosses the line regarding how much control Apple has over the device for which I paid!!!
- chacha102 15y agoThis argument is way over used. It is 'your' choice to upgrade to iOS5. It isn't like Chrome where there are rolling updates that just get applied. You actually have to sit at your computer for a while, download the software and than install it. Many chances to turn back.
- barista 15y agoLame argument. Microsoft offers you a "choice" of installing updates as well. What if they started deleting files put by other legitimate apps because it is slowing your computer or changing your wallpaper because its too ugly... where is the line???
- zerosandones 15y ago"Isn't this what innovation is about?" Forgive the mini-rant on semantics, but that sounds like using community as QA to solve problems you didn’t have previously - that you created. Because if that’s the new definition, Facebook’s sure been innovating when it comes to privacy issues lately. I see innovation being about the positive experiences users have with a new product (or feature), and seeing the directions they take things the original creator hadn’t imagined.
