First of all, I'm not a phone geek. Now that we got that out of the way, I recently (finally) upgraded my iPhone 4 to IOS 6. I knew the maps were bad but I didn't realize how bad: No Street View, and (HORRORS!) NO EXIT NUMBERS!! But it turns out there is a solution and you don't have to jailbreak your phone. The app is called 'Maps+ Street View' by Brainflash . Just make sure you click on the upper left corner and select 'Google" as your preferred map source. Oh, and it'll set you back a whole dollar.
Ive heard rumors but ill believe it when I see it...but then I s'pose if Apple is actually concerned about customer retention- and they may be just arrogant enuf not to be- then we'll get it back in some form. But I'm not holding my breath.
apple banned google maps. but apparently can't get it right. google is back now. least, that was the news on engadget.com
