tried em all, 13 Dec 2012i Know..hearing an exec of samsung has differing preference... morevery true... now customers should all follow that n give respect to what others own, unlike bashing other phones n saying mine z better, iphone is better or android is better... most of people visit this site only to fight n defend their product... what a foolishness... even i havent found a single discussion related to the article... what i found is everyone kicking others...

Anonymous, 13 Dec 2012How is giving an Android exclusive feature to Apple classed... moreMan don't take the wrong way i own an iphone 5 myself and i was waiting for the google maps app but my point is google could've launch the app since the appeareance of iphone 5 in september.Instead they waited(while Tim Cook appologized for their maps app) and they releasead the application when the time was right.I don't think that google had that much to loose from exiting the ios 6 deal.

Its now NOT the best smartphone out....Damn that guys honest opinion.... Stupid samsung should only ever hire yes men....best way to grow is to believe your product is the best and that others have nothing to make you want to improve your own product right... ¬_¬ Point is All manufacturers believe other manufacturers have better things than they do.. Thats what drives competition. From iphone wannabe galaxy s1 to the iphone smacker galaxy s3 samsung have learnt and improved a hole heap and they wouldnt have done if they didnt have people who appreciated others on board. You cant be an inbred in business

Anonymous, 13 Dec 2012Erm. Did you read Apples statement? They agreed that the ma... more"And Android hasn't always had free turn by turn voice navigation. They copied Nokias decision to add it to maps for free on Eclair."
Err Eclair you say e f g h i j.... why not mention something that happened 20 years ago instead. They've been free for ages so your point is weak. It was an added bonus of buying an adroid over an iphone for some and now that barrier is down but from here instead of it being a mutual gain some are spinning it like its googles loss like they gain nothing from this...behave

I agree - Google is too good to apple... If they would launch Nexus devices before iphone and ipad - apple would have much bigger losses.

AnonD-18125, 13 Dec 2012Nokia?! What's that?Nokia is the company that gave iPhone users Nokia Maps while Google was still trying to make fun of Apple, and now Google changed their mind as in "better late than never."

Very smart move by google.They wait after the iphone 5 launch to launch their own product(nexus 4).After the nexus 10 official launch they decide cu make the app for ios 6.This is how the biggest corporations work.

I can't seem to find Google Maps in the Apple Store. I am trying now and have tried many times by searching for it. I think App Store in Pakistan hasn't been updated yet.

Extremez, 13 Dec 2012for god sake i have a question !!!
why does google support... moreYou forget the most important thing.
Google makes its money through advertising and services.
There are millions of iPhone users in the world. Google want them to use their applications so that Google can then earn money from the advertising and services that appears in these apps.
iPhone is so important to Google that Google earns more money from iOS than they do from Android.

Tried it. It's pretty crappy. Slow, bad interface, no offline mode or caching. And in my region (at least) the Google maps are pretty bad.
