Nope. Apple’s licence with Google was up this year for access to the maps.
* Google decided that they wanted more user data than Apple was prepared to give them.
* Google was not going to give Apple access to the vector map tiles, thus making the iPhone experience with maps less than Android.
* Google doesn’t allow third parties to use Google maps for turn-by-turn navigation, putting the iPhone at a distinct disadvantage.

This was not a one-sided decision. Both parties are to blame.

Not Google’s fault, Apple got all 6 years old on them and removed Google Maps and YouTube cause of their on going court battles, Only making things worse for apple has 4 people in my family are talking about going to the Android side. I’m just happy I left apple and got an Android before apple runs themselves into the ground over stupid childish stuff.
