Yep, Apple Maps has a long way to go before being useable in my opinion. I'd expect Google to release an app, just as they did with YouTube (you'll notice that has also disappeared from your home screen).

Not as much as the 4S or the 5.

Be aware that the YouTube app has been removed (but you can get a Google version in the App store) and for maps they have ditched the excellent Google Maps and used their own which is still work in progress, still no Siri for you on a 4, its got over 200 hundred 'improvements'  most of which you will be hard pushed to see or use

Its the first upgrade since Jobs passed away and it shows, its still rough in some areas

I'm staying on 5.1.1 with my jailbreak :love: for now

like the 3d view on maps in London and some of the big places

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box
