problem: apple maps replaces google maps

solution: use google maps via safari (personally, i have been using apple maps and have not gotten lost, but others have found issues. i never use satellite view, so the distorted satellite pics do not affect me. my lack of annoyance with apple maps does not change the fact that apple has some work to do...)


i upgraded my iPhone 4 and have had no problems. my battery life has been steadily deteriorating for the last 3 or 4 months so i can't tell if the upgrade has affected battery life. i'll be getting an iPhone 5 in a couple of months when my contract is up, so i'll deal with this annoyance until then.
Totally with you on every point. The Apple Maps are actually fairly good. Yeah there's a few flaws, but I find I like it. I do use Google maps through the browser, but it's only really good for checking traffic, or finding an address not found on Apple maps.

Mooper failed to mention the youtube app in the app store, so I was glad you mentioned it.
