I usually download new versions of apps within a couple of days of them appearing (that red notification indicator is so annoying).
Will try a full discharge recharge and see what happens.
Apple Maps vs Google Maps = Apple isn't even in the game.

Loyalty definitely isn't what it used to be...
<rabid nonsense>
Do you understand the word Loyalty ?
This has nothing to do with loyalty - they have a$$ fåkd their customers with this update BIG TIME. Same with Mountain Lion.
Money for NOTHING.
But since then ??? The mac's are the same - just a new story to old hardware.
iPad ? Well okay... This is still in the top. But with iOS 6 - no youtube viewer anymore????? Thats just plain STUPID.
iPhone? Look at it... What happen since 3GS ??? Faster Hardware and better camaras. But else... Some small software things that only works in some countries.
If you mess with your buyers... They will tell you the first time to straigthen up.
Second time sales go down...
3. time - you're out... Think Apple will from now on go downwards. PEOPLE cant be so stupid to continue to buy new stuff thats actually OLD STUFF.
Nothing really new since 2009... I dont like Android - but slowly iOS is really really getting behind Android.
Should have bought Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 - so much more for the money. Better OS ... It even takes something a SD card :-O Ever heard of them Apple ? Wooooowwww futuristic.
Are you talking to me? Because Pimlical (the offshoot of the Palm OS product Datebk6) is available on Android, and it is a calendar product that is about as far ahead of iCal as the original iPhone was ahead of a Motorola StarTac.
HOW COME THESE TYPES OF THREADS DON'T PLAY THE TINY VIOLIN WHEN I OPEN THEM??
OP, go, run fast. This ship is sinking for sure.![]()
Have you tried Apple maps? I was looking forward to a sidestep from Google to Apple, I got the Windows ME equivalent of Maps software.... This thing is not even ready for system testing, let alone live release.
Having used iOS 6 map's to do turn by turn navigation (even in Beta) from Manchester, UK to Germany (Heidelberg) I can state that Apple's maps are infinitely better than Google's, very accurate and fast + you get Turn by Turn![]()
So the completely and utterly useless google map's that was on the iPhone before is better than the new Maps? I am expecting Apple to be releasing some serious updates for it over the coming months but in the mean time... it's brilliant turn by turn is awesome and works flawlessly over different countries in which I frequently drive![]()
Infinitely? I guess you stayed to major highways, this is something TomTom does well.
Go off the main road or smaller towns and give it a go.
Google maps being utterly useless?
Were you using Google maps as a Car nav? And hence finding tomtom's version to be so much better?

Your argument is a 3rd party application? If that's the case I can be fairly certain there are loads of apps on the App Store that would blow it out of the water.
One customer is very unlikely to impact their profit margin much. In fact it won't impact it at all, which you would be fully aware of if you knew what a profit margin was.
But I digress. You've made the asinine and sadly go-to point of many on this forum, which is to say 'screw you, the company I like is making lots of money, from people like me, so they're right and unless you're going to join the circle-jerk, your opinion is worthless'
But there are a lot of people who don't understand why they should buy an iPhone 5, or what they gain out of upgrading iOS6, and apathy towards a product, especially one commanding the sort of premium that iPhone does will impact on Apple. Whether that's now, or maybe the next time the sheep that just bought a new iPhone on the upgrade cycle feel like they got their fingers burned, it may well happen.
I have been playing around with iOS 6 and I am hugely disappointed.
Apple Maps - it's so bad, it's so bad.
Contacts - too cluttered. You have fields for Facebook profiles, Facebook chat, Facebook e-mail address, Facebook profile link, regular e-mail address.. There is also buttons for added accounts. "Name in iCloud" "Name in Facebook". Just if you forgot where where you added the contact?!
Colored status bar - sometimes black, sometimes colored. Ugh??!
Dial buttons - if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
= how did they end up here when they tossed ideas around? Did they scrapped the idea of a wifi-bluetooth toogle for a colored status bar? It is obvious that they focused too hard on Facebook intergration. Was the new map solution included in the last second? Just not ready for prime time.
Siri vs Google voice search = Google dominates.
Apple Maps vs Google Maps = Apple isn't even in the game.
Hardware design = Users love curved backs on mobiles. The iphone 4, 4S just feelt odd. I stuck with iPhone because of the software. I thought I would never say this but I will sell my iPhone 4S and get a Galaxy Nexus. I will miss the camera but Google is just better in search and mapping.
