Oh man I wish Apple would just get over themselves and allow it in the app store.
I've started carrying around my Nexus 7 in addition to my iphone just because of maps.
If iOS maps isn't seriously fixed by the time my contract is out, there's no way I'd by another iphone.
- lostlogin 14y agoIs it Apple that not letting it into the App Store? I thought that this was just speculation? The reason maps changed was, as I understood it, not just due to Apple, as google wouldn't give access to 'the good data' - vector based maps.
- taligent 14y agoAccording to TechCrunch, Google was hoping to have it submitted by Christmas. There is NO evidence that Apple is blocking it from the store.
- rdtsc 14y agoExactly. This is really Apple's loss at this point. As more stories like these accumulate, there will be a good number of users who will think twice before jumping in and buying an Apple device. Getting stuck in a bad part of a city, getting lost on some unpaved road at night in a national park, is many people's nightmare. At this point many don't even carry paper maps or if they did they probably couldn't use it effectively.
