Comment on On the Timing of Apple’s Map Switchparent

Comments

Wouldn't moving from Google to Apple maps be adding the new OS features rather than removing them?

That is what I said. My point being removing/adding Apple Maps isn't the hard part, it was merely to point out that there is more to the mapping api's than an application. And if legally Apple cannot do turn by turn using Google apis, then they cannot provide one to one compatible api's with both. So they just dropped the Google api backended MapKit.
