My theory is that people want it to be worse than it actually is. I've put ~1000 miles on it via turn-by-turn and I like it a lot better than the old maps app.

What I dont get is that people were/are willing to wait for google to get it together with the "next release," and crucify apple for doing the exact same.

Either way, we win because apple removing google maps from ios forced google to work hard on providing a good app and google's app will force apple to polish up their maps.
