Google works well on a new Maps Application for iPhone and iPad


It's funny how sometimes you just feel like jumping in the past. If you said "Google is working on an application for iOS Maps" you say the guy is nice but a little behind, he found the info in 2006, before the release of the first iPhone .

Not at all. You probably know that Apple has turned the Google Maps application to the latest version of its operating system, iOS6 present natively on the iPhone 5 and also available update on iPad , iPhone 3GS, 4 and 4S . According to Google, this volte-face came a bit by surprise since according to some sources he was still a year contract to run between the two firms in California.

Apple has replaced Google Maps Maps by its own mapping and GPS navigation with the added bonus of 3D views that were not available in Google Maps for iOS.



At a time when this type of application is strategic, the whole question was whether Google would propose new Maps application for iPhone and others. After blowing hot and cold , it seems that Mountain View is finally working on such an application.

RAM competition

But competition with Maps apparently somewhat tickled susceptibility Google, the return of Maps on iOS is not for now because it would work in Mountain View, this time on a 3D version. Problem would be to use data from Google Earth, and it is not at all the same code. While Google has made ​​no official statement on the subject, and his DG Eric Schmidt said the company has not taken any initiative in this direction, several sources close to the original Google occasions by the very serious New York Times , say that Google Maps application for iOS will be available well before the end of the year.

Remains whether Apple may wish to validate and accept on its App Store, or if this will be a significant new episode of the alleged thermonuclear war between the two big boys .

Meanwhile, despite some shortcomings, it is clear that plans on iOS6 is quite impressive in terms of speed of loading and framerate. I enjoy the views of my good city of Lyon in 3D.
