Google Maps (for iPhone)

Our short national nightmare is over. People can stop heading to the wrong cities, falling off of warped bridges, and dying of heat strokes while using Apple Maps. iPhone owners running iOS 6 can now restore Google Maps to its prominent place on the...

Smooth, vector-based map animation. Accurate routing and POI data. Equally adept at pedestrian and car navigation. Beautiful satellite data and Street Views. Includes public transit navigation in major cities

No road speed limit display. No lane assistance. Few configuration options. No iPad version (yet)

Google Maps brings free, accurate GPS-enabled maps back to the iPhone, and even throws in free voice navigation on iOS for the first time.

Google Maps for iPhone review

Google Maps returns to iOS with this App Store download. Our Google Maps for iPhone review tests out all new features.

Map data feels more trustworthy, Map system more familiar, integrates with Google account, turn-by-turn navigation, Google reviews, Street View

Doesn't have all Layers of information that Android app has, interface and cartography not as good as Apple Maps; doesn't integrate with Siri, Address Book or other Apple services
