Traffic on ios6 maps?

It shows the traffic on the maps, not just the turn by turn directions. Just push the button to show it.

 

Here:

 

If you are in sat mode then it would be greyed out. Make it to hybrid or map view and you’re good to go. It’s better than Google actually as you can now click on the little icons to see what the event is about.

 

Its nice that you can get more details about accidents, but in terms of traffic information it is severely lacking. Im hoping once more people install ios6 it will get better. I live in south florida and on a monday afternoon about 80% of the entire map should be red not just about 5%. Thats the way google maps used to look

 

I liked the Google Maps traffic a ton better. Told me traffic flow in an easy red, yellow, or green color. This apple version sucks.

 

Agree. Apple maps only has the Interstate roads showing traffic. Google was down to the local level and roads much closer to my house.

I'll keep using Waze for navigation anyway. Apple Maps suck IMHO.

Is there a Google map app?

 

If Apple's traffic is anything like TomTom's, it will only show traffic that is beyond normal. So, if a particular road slows down to 15mph around 5pm everyday, it already knows that, doesn't show a traffic incident, and takes it into account when determining routing directions. If that same road then slows down to a stop, it will mark it as an incident if it was normally 15mph.
