Google could be preparing Google Maps for iOS 6
A few days after the release of Apple Maps, the exclusive tool of maps of Apple and its general disappointment, arriving on rumors about the possible arrival of a new version of Google Maps for the operating system iOS 6 Something that many users will appreciate after missing it when trying the catastrophic and poorly tuned map application for the block.For now there has been no official announcement, but some say that only the Apple acceptance remainsfor subsequent publication in the App Store
The news broke in the newspaper The Guardian, where they claimed to have received a tip that Google was developing a version of its mapping tool for the new operating system of Apple And there are still more. Shortly after the specialized media 9to5mac.com corroborated what was said in The Guardian and added that the application anda had been finished and sent to Apple for publication Which, if true, would mean being one step away from publication: the acceptance and approval by Apple quality checks
The rumors are accompanied by the alleged claim by a well-known developer named Steve Stroughton-Smith , who, through a message on the social network Twitter gave the information of as correct The Guardian with a simple “Yep” (yep). And a little later, a journalist very close to Apple named Jim Dalrymple responded to these rumors with a simple: Nope (nop). A game of rumors that only serves to demislead and keep Apple and Google in the media spotlight
Even so, the rumors continue to strongly support the version that claims that the application Google Maps for iOS 6 is missing the go-ahead And not only that, there are also rumors about the time that could pass until this application is published.For this, we rescue the case of Google Voice or voice search, which took a whole yearto be accepted by Apple before publication. Therefore, on this occasion, it is most likely that we would have to wait months, if not years
Rumors that only raise the hopes of those users who have updated their devices to iOS 6 waiting to enjoy a complete mapping tool, with turn-by-turn navigation, integration with the voice assistant Siri and the long-awaited 3D maps (Flyover), but that have come up against a very different: lack of points of interest registered, poor reliability when finding places, distorted maps and little information about trafficA fiasco that will be difficult for some to forget.
In the meantime, as Apple says, arm yourself with patience , both to wait for the improvements needed in Apple Maps and for the supposed Arrival of Google Maps on iOS 6 Something that could do a lot of damage to the people of Cupertino after the effort and investment dedicated to creating your own mapping tool. Undoubtedly, a war of applications that still has a lot to play for
