When google maps was the default map app in prior versions of ios, all apps would automatically open directions in it.

Now most searches from other apps and the web open in the WEB version of google maps; which actually really sucks. :mad:

I was frustrated when I noticed this in ios6, but it's still the same situation even after release of the new Google maps standalone app.

Is there anyway to force all directions from searches to open in either the apple or google maps standalone app?

Not super sure but I think its the job of the developer of the app.
