When the cat is away, the mice dance. And in agreement, Apple has managed to break a new sales record with its iPhone 5, although the level of satisfaction of some points of iOS 6, the platform with which the terminal goes on sale and that is available for previous generations of its mobile equipment has not been as good as expected. The main stumbling block that the operating system has flagged out of shame has been the native Maps solution, with which those from Cupertino tried to launch an ordeal at Google.
We used to say that when the cat is not there, the mice start dancing. And if it was to be expected that this, for now failed, geosteering application would mark a turning point in the market, for now it has not served more than to get the colors out of Apple and for the competition to place its alternatives in the front row. Given this, and while Google maintains a dramatic pause in this regard, the Finnish Nokia puts its proposal integrated into the browser in the front row. And it is that Nokia Maps is not only available for mobile systems based on S40, Nokia Belle or Windows Phone systems. In addition, any Android or iOS terminal could benefit from this award-winning application through the web browser.
Seeing that iOS 6 Maps users reach unexpected places with the application, Nokia suggests: open Safari, go to maps.nokia.com and from there, try one of the two available options. On the one hand, you can work with the application from the web browser, a solution that may require that, every time you want to use Nokia Maps, you take more steps than necessary; on the other, you can install a shortcut on the main iOS 6 desktop through bookmarks, so you only have to press it to launch the Safari browser directly to the embedded application "" since theNative app is not available on the App Store. That easy.
Given the situation that has been generated with the iOS 6 Maps application, Apple has limited itself to invoking the patience of users. It is no longer just that is qualitatively inferior to leading Google in its mobile "" lacks all the informative sections of the proposal Android "", but also service geolocation arrives to present a delusional locations, showing even Three-dimensional recreations of some cities that literally tear buildings and sites apart. However, it looks like Google is going to savor Apple's bitterness right now., and shows that you want to take it easy. In fact, it has already announced that it will not launch its Google Maps for iOS at the moment, thereby tightening the rope of the situation.
Meanwhile, it seems that Nokia Maps are the best proposal if we do not want to end up unaccounted for. It is a free solution and is backed by a multitude of awards and endorsements by professionals and users.
