The problem google have now is that their app is not default and is not as well connected to the OS.
iOS is the dominant platform for internet connectivity and they lost it.

I'm sure there will be a lot of downloads of google maps but the problem now for google is that users won't have them as the default app when searching.
Google thought by making the iOS maps app crap it would make android look better, this was short sighted.
Apple have side stepped google and have gained more control over a key issue on their platform. Now they have google bounding back like a long lost puppy wanting to play nice again.
Its too late though.

Maps is much more important than say Youtube where it wouldn't be an issue to get rid of. Maps are a key feature on smart phones. Search engines and map apps are incredibly useful for gaining data.

LMFAO.........if you think Apple was only about Jobs you are sorely mistaken.
If you think Samsung have new ideas you are seriously deluded.

Apple don't rely on mining data to create their revenue.......google do.
Google have lost this one I'm afraid.
