    Default Apple - A Letter From Tim Cook on Maps

    Apple Apologizing Apple Admitting to Falling Short Apple Advising Costumers to try Alternatives while they improve ..

    No sah, Steve Turning in his Grave now

    Apple Total World Domination is Slipping lol

    To our customers,

    At Apple, we strive to make world-class products that deliver the best experience possible to our customers. With the launch of our new Maps last week, we fell short on this commitment. We are extremely sorry for the frustration this has caused our customers and we are doing everything we can to make Maps better.

    We launched Maps initially with the first version of iOS. As time progressed, we wanted to provide our customers with even better Maps including features such as turn-by-turn directions, voice integration, Flyover and vector-based maps. In order to do this, we had to create a new version of Maps from the ground up.

    There are already more than 100 million iOS devices using the new Apple Maps, with more and more joining us every day. In just over a week, iOS users with the new Maps have already searched for nearly half a billion locations. The more our customers use our Maps the better it will get and we greatly appreciate all of the feedback we have received from you.

    While we’re improving Maps, you can try alternatives by downloading map apps from the App Store like Bing, MapQuest and Waze, or use Google or Nokia maps by going to their websites and creating an icon on your home screen to their web app.

    Everything we do at Apple is aimed at making our products the best in the world. We know that you expect that from us, and we will keep working non-stop until Maps lives up to the same incredibly high standard.

    Apple’s CEO

    Its good that a CEO can apology the company has faults than ignoring it.
    Better they sayed with Google Maps in the first place and cut a deal for turn by turn navigation branded google. Being exculsive doesn't always word out

    Well here comes the "if Apple can apologize ..." joke.

    Seriously tho, does anyone else see that the 5 is just a 4Ss? (Emphasis on the last 's')

    obviously you seem to be totally BLIND or are giving a totally new meaning to the saying

    Again my observation as stated before stands Your reply only served to confirm the already ignorant mind.
