how to delete apple maps?

You are a little late to the game. This discussion was taking place back in January. You picked an odd time to join in, the day after Google rolls out ads in its maps.

In addition to missing those dates, you seem to have missed other pertinent details. The threadjacker in question used a standard tactic of claiming that Google works much better in remote areas. Considering that Google requires a high-bandwidth, always-on internet connection, I asked how this was possible in a remote area without people or wireless coverage. That is when the venue magically changed to Sydney.

I don't know what you are talking about with "pasted aerial maps". What is an "aerial map"? Like everyone else, Apple uses a mix of satellite and aerial imagery. There are some artifacts present in the 3D views but Apple has made very good progress in fixing those.

GIS products typically start small and take many years to mature. There has never been a mass-market introduction of a brand-new GIS product like this before. A good GIS professor would take the opportunity to show how a GIS system works, while the seams in Apple Maps are still big enough to peek through. Apple Maps has problems with duplicate geographic names that are common in the UK and Australia. It also has trouble reconciling data from multiple sources. It has an excellent algorithmic basis but doesn't always reflect real-worl modifications that people have done to cartographic designs after the fact. Of course, this information is only useful to people who are interested in how GIS works inside. If your only interest is in teaching which button to press in ESRI, then "busting a gut laughing" might be the better course of action.

etresoft, you are a JOKE.

i live in Sydney, i tried once Apple map to find the nearest "IKEA" , and it shows the one in Pasadena USA.
time estimated for arrival by car = 27 days.

LOL

i was like.. whaaa ? hahaha... too bad I can't delete this app

totally useless.

you go have a try.

Search "IKEA" if you are in sydney, then it will shows the nearest one in USA.

Whoever made apple maps should be bare *** spanked in public and made to wear a dunce cap. It's shameful. It simulates how one would navigate if drunk and lost. Want to go creatively out of your way or maybe never find your destination? Use apple maps! Obviously you haven't had any experience either with apple maps or you've never used another to compare it with.

Just thinking about how I can't delete it, can't crush it's malformed skull with a hammer gets me worked up. And why can't i point other apps away from it to google maps? It's so annoying. Apple needs to stop drinking it's koolaid, have a moment of clarity and bury this app.

With nice phone comes a crap app called apple map. Like a rose with thorns. At least one can remove thorns, but can't get rid of it.

Is there any use of this app in India? Completely useless app, I am always afraid of upgrading to new IOS.

You cannot delete the Maps app or any other of the included apps. All you can do is put it a folder where it's out of the way.

Regard.

You cannot delete it. Move it to the last page or wait for it to improve.

At the moment you are unable to delete the apps you dont want.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet. Apple Maps is different than Google, but it is superior in many ways.

Well I took a trip yesterday following Google's directions and Google instructed me to dig a tunnel!

Google Maps are now available again on iPhone!!!!!!

There is a God.

It didnt Morph anywhere, if you had even half a clue, you'd understand a professional forester may be living in NEWCASTLE (near sydney) yet working in very remote areas.

Keep your blinkers on.

You responded to the wrong person.

To put it back on track; you still will not be able to delete it.
