@wilshipley Agreed. Seems few of the "reviews" of iOS 6 maps mention this. I guess focusing on lack of transit & street view generates hits.
With iOS 6 using an iPhone to drive somewhere goes from “worst in class” to “best in class.” It’s gorgeous and simple.

@publicfarley I sure could not give less of a crap about street view.

@wilshipley But using an iPhone to take public transit in my city has gone from perfectly fine to completely non-existent (for now anyway). -
@wilshipley Hopefully the pain is temporary though. Google Maps in Safari is at least vaguely usable until they get their own app out.

@wilshipley So far the maps I’ve seen make me think I should stay with iOS 5. -
@wilshipley and it doesn’t get annoyed when you ask “Are we there yet?” -
@wilshipley iOS Maps only problems are data/transit, both solvable in months. The interface makes my car nav look like a joke. -
@wilshipley Depends on where you are. Where I drive - TX, CO, and CA - yes. Around the world, not so much. -
@wilshipley I'm frustrated with business search in Maps, though. Immediately inferior. -
@wilshipley and the opposite for those suckers that take the bus -
@wilshipley It places my address blocks away from where it really is, I can’t call that best in class. -
@wilshipley You're shitting me, right? I was expecting a </sarcasm> tag after that. -
@wilshipley unless you are talking about accessibility to use without looking I could not disagree more. Taken down many wrong roads so far -
@wilshipley Except the directions it gives are ridiculous. -
-
@wilshipley glad you like it. :) -
@millenomi Great release. Congrats. -
@mattyohe :D thanks!#itsnotjustmeofcourse

@wilshipley "best in class". Yeah, right. ;) -
@wilshipley You seriously saying this is the first time you’ve seen that? It was on par with my limo’s Garmin the other day.
