I'm interested to know how apple maps is not usable to anyone. I deliver pizza for a living. and I use apple maps. No, i dont use turn by turn. All i need is the general area for my delivery and im off. And Apple maps seems to do that well enough.
Hopefully they will release one. I haven't updated to IOS 6 specifically because of Apple Maps. If Google launches, I'll update.
Didn't Steve Jobs say he would "go to thermonuclear war" with google?

Simple. Buy Google.
I'm MORE than happy to pay Google for a Google Maps app. Nothing too exorbitant - $1.99 or $2.99 feels about right...

"In iOS6, we said **** Google Maps"
As an iPod Touch 4 user, I can tell you that the maps fiasco is just one of several problems with iOS6. Slow wifi, slow system, crashing apps all over the place. The App store, for instance, has never once managed to stay open long enough to find anything! Okay, the 'Touch' only has an A4 chip but it's supposed to be compatible, so that's what I was expecting.
As long as Google do not have a maps app for iOS6, there is time for more and more disgruntled people to voice their dissatisfaction with Apple's sub-par efforts and consider making the move away from Apple altogether. If I were Google, I wouldn't be in any hurry either; just sit back with a fat cigar and smile.
Maps App is your reason for not updating to the latest software version....or is it the negative feedback from everyone worried about the satellite images that are out of whack. The app works! It just needs more data to make it better and when that data comes in, this will be the best mapping system.
I would never give my personal location data to Google. They will sell it to advertisers.

Most of you on here that are complaining about apple maps have not even tried it yet
In some parts of the UK the mapping data is abysmal. I've updated to iOS 6 on my iPad but I'm keeping my iPhone on iOS 5 until we see a big improvement.
I've reported dozens of missing towns and incorrect labels to Apple, it'll be interesting to see how fast they react and correct the data.
I agree with you! I used turn by turn and everything work great to me as well...sometime i think ppl tend to make a fuss about things without actually thinking. Who knows what happened behind closed doors for Apple to make this big change. A lot of these complainers need to put the shoe on the other foot. I would cut ties as well!
