 Anybody noticed something wrong with new apple maps. This new map on IOS 6 is not user friendly. Google maps was way better. It is said that Apple is using the maps from Tomtom.

Yeah i read an article about it earlier today. There are some glitches. They will def. send an update soon so just deal with it for now. Its not that bad. You can download the official youtube app from the app store which is so much better than the one before. Also, google maps is coming to app store.

 No youtube app for ipad yet though. And I think voice navigation is only available for 4s and 5 . http://www.pcmag.com/article2/...

Not all the features for ios6 is available for iPhone 4 -- like prankster mentioned voice Nav is only for 4s, Siri update is limited only to 4s and above. The panaromic features of the cameras is also limited to 4s and 5 -- they have removed couple of the icons and added few-- like passbook which doesn't seem to work in 4 and you have to go though a website to get it working

Apple partner with tom tom to built map for ios 6. they also drop out youtube. May be they will partner dailymotion for native video app.

 Apple's new map is a lot inferior to the google map. It will take time to become  more usable. @Facebook...Apple's youtube app was developed my Apple itself instead of google. It was pretty inferior to the google own youtube app. The decision my apple to remove youtube app is win-win for both parties. Apple no longer has to update youtube app and also distant itself from google product. Google can now build its own youtube app and control adds.

Around 7100 employees are working on Apple Maps now. Refer to this: http://news.yahoo.com/google-w...

 With that many employees working on that, the Maps will be updated soon with new IOS update 6.1

Alas Steve Jobs is no more and Apple started pushing their beta products like apple map in iphones...how can you take a polished product like tomtom map data and screw it up big time? Beats me
