Top 10 Apple Maps Alternatives
Sep 20, 2012 07:52 PM EDT by Perhaps Apple dumped Google’s Maps app in favor of its own creation a little too soon. iOS 6 users are complaining about everything from Maps’ lack of transit directions and misplaced landmarks to misspelled towns and Dali-esque 3D images. The default app for the iPhone 5 has also given us directions to the wrong location.
Apple quickly responded to the outcry, saying “We’re just getting started,” but that’s not going to cut it for a lot of folks. To help make your navigation experience a little easier, we’ve put together this list of Maps alternatives. They should help get you by until Google’s rumored iOS 6-compatible Maps app comes through.
GPS by TeleNav
TeleNav's GPS is one of the best free apps you can download if you need help getting around. It includes turn-by-turn directions, points-of-interest, gas prices and traffic. Best of all, the app's maps are constantly being updated. If you're looking for slightly more functionality, you can pay $2.99 per month to get access to GPS's premium services including voice navigation, voice commands, premium traffic and more.
