Even Apple Doesnt Use Its Own Maps

Unless you’ve been living under a rock lately, you've probably heard about the recent iOS Maps fiasco. While the media always exaggerates in reporting these blunders, Apple itself has admitted that more work is necessary to bring the iOS Maps up to par.

While Apple prides itself on offering in-house developed solutions, the company is still forced (for now) to display Google Maps on its web site for whoever is trying to locate a store.

The Cupertino, California-based computer giant cannot risk misguiding customers looking to pay them a visit, whether it’s for buying something new, or even for returning a product.

CEO Tim Cook has promised that his company’s Maps service will get better in time. When that happens, Apple.com is likely to start using the new Apple Maps too.
