Everyone Starts Making Fun Of Apple Maps

Not that it'll make a difference, but Motorola is the latest.

I tried it on my iPhone. It is 15km away from the real address. I got the same results. Great. BUT, if you put the address with the zip code it takes you exactly there.

Just put the address properly:

315 E 15th St New York, NY 10003

Instead of

315 e 15th st ny

Bit of false advertisement there.

I live up the mountain here on Samui. Over the last month I have had at least 15 people drive into my driveway looking for a restaurant that is around 12 km away. all have been clutching I phones.

That tells me it is a load of crap like the phone itself !

Since iOS 6 just came out 4 days ago, they were all using Google Maps. Nothing to do with the iPhone, so blame Google for that one...IF they were using the phone to look for the restaurant.

Maybe it got better. Give us the name of the restaurant and I'll look it up. Maybe Apple Maps does a better job than Google Maps.

i really don't understand waht the big deal is. How did people manage to get places before smartphones?

It's a good app. Give it time and it'll get better. In the meantime, use Google Maps or read the fuc_king street signs!
