"The free software started becoming available through Apple's App store on Sunday (October 26). It's a free download in 20 countries, running in all 18 languages the iPhone supports."

I can't find it in the US Itunes store. Does anybody have a link to the app? Thanks...

 

[FearlessFreep]

Not yet. It's apparently coming. The comments say it has hit the Australia store.

 

[spyker3292]

Yup, it's there.

Quick tip: Change your store country at the bottom of the page in iTunes .

 

[tongteh]

found it in australia app store!! thanks for the tip.

spyker3292: Even if you change your store to Australia, it won't let you download if you have an US itunes account. Guess I'll have to wait a few hours....

 

[spyker3292]

Yup, but you can see that it's there .

 

[UltimateSyn]

You can't see it under searches.

But I clicked All Applications By Google and it showed up!

Google Earth is now out!

I just got it here in the UK. Looks promising
Having said that.. Runs a bit jittery. Not exactly sure what it offers above the Google Maps satalite view so far..
The tilt thing is nifty, but again.. Not as smooth as it could be.

Already crashed a bunch of times on me.

is this a better version of earthscape?

 

[moka]

much faster then earthescape but you are going to sacrifice a very very small percentage with image quality. i prefer it alot more than earthescape

I hope they port Google Earth to Android soon.

I'm pretty sure these satellite photos are a few years old, since my neighbors cars and my cars have changed, (my old cars are in two different street views and the license plates on both are visible; scary). Nice images on my iPhone and I was a bit dizzy when I tilted my iPhone and the terrain moved with me...

Frustration

Aaah, the frustration, it's not yet available in Hungary :-/ I sure hope it will be.

Anyway, why would anyone use the Maps application anymore if Google Earth knows the same functions but is much more powerful?

 

[Kingsnapped]

This is absolutely amazing. I never expected this on the iPhone.

 

[nagromme]

Very nice! Mostly I'll just use Maps, but the 3D terrain is very useful sometimes. (And always fun.)

Now integrate with X-Plane please

Not too bad Google!
The images for me aren't too clear, but overall it is a very neat app!
Go get it!

wicked sick =)
the world in my fingertips!!!

 

[SimonTheSoundMa]

This runs more smooth than the desktop version on my MacBook Pro.

You can forget using it on my MacBook, the image flickers black bars all the time.

Google, can you fix your Mac OS X version please!

 

[arkitect]

This works really well.
Although it is rather wasted on a small screen.

 

[NZPacifikRoze]

I find Google Earth to be very slow on the iPhone for now. Also, I feel the top half of my phone gets pretty warm quickly while using the app.

 

[alchemistmuffin]

expecting KILL SWITCH any time....

expect Apple to turn on the KILL SWITCH soon, as soon as Apple sends Google the cease and desist letter for leaving Apple's OWN maps app, which by the way, now HAS STREET VIEW....

 

[InkMaster]

Shame IRL its nowhere as snappy as it is in the demo
