    Default Apple iOS 6

    Just downloaded it and the "Do not disturb" is a cool feature that should've been there a LONG time ago but the rest of it feels like a downgrade. I'm going to switch back to the old OS when I get home from work because the new maps ABSOLUTELY SUCKS.

    Turn by turn should've been available forever ago but at least the old Google Maps actually worked. This new Apple Maps thing has failed on the first two of three tries.

    Kinda wish I had used my upgrade last year for an Android but I liked my old iPhone at the time and thought I'd love it when the maps had turn by turn directions...

    If you have an iPhone and you regularly use the maps feature... DO NOT upgrade to iOS 6. It is a disaster.

    Yeah it can be done. I think it involves using an old backup or something but it will happen. I use maps for almost all of my searches so I can't deal with this "upgrade"

    Not going to upgrade until it has a JB.

    Google's nav has been fantastic for me. I want AT&T Navigator to die and stop asking me if I want to use it, when I set Google as default EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

    The advantage with Google/Apple nav is the upgrades are often and free. I threw out my standalone GPS when I learned the updated maps would cost more than the device to buy the upgrade.
