It is now a known fact that Apple’s Maps app by TomTom in iOS 6 still needs work. There are countless rants & views all-around of the internet on the matter. Whether you think its fine as a work-in-progress or you think it is Apple’s fault for setting high standards, the Maps app is far from the now-gone Maps powered by Google. Spotted by a tipster from The Next Web, Apple is on a massive hiring spree for 17 Software Engineers for Maps/Navigation. So they are aware of the missing features like navigation public transportation, inaccuracies, and bad 3D rendering of various places of interest. There are a slew of third-party alternatives out in the App Store that can put you at ease. Cut them some slack people, don’t get caught up in the reality-distortion field. Apple is not perfect and neither are their products.
