How to Replace New Maps app on ios 6 with Google Maps?

Try using this for the time being

https://maps.google.com/

At this time, Google doesn't have a Maps application available in the App Store. As they have one for pretty much every other application, I don't expect it to be too much longer until one is available.

It worked!!

You can still use Google’s maps — on the Web. Visit maps.google.com and accept the offer to create a Home-screen icon for you. You won’t get spoken directions, but you’ll get written directions, public transportation details, live traffic reports and, of course, Google’s far superior maps and data. (In two weeks, you’ll be able to get Street View this way, too, says Google.) And you can install the Google Plus Local app for full access to Google’s more complete database of shops and businesses.

You can also use someone else’s app. Many good ones cost money, but the MapQuest and Waze apps are free and offer spoken directions; Waze also incorporates real-time information about traffic jams, accidents and speed traps, collected by thousands of iPhones and Android phones on the roads.

If you can wait a couple of months, you’ll be able to install Google’s own maps app; Google is busily readying one for the iPhone and iPad.

When I used the link to google maps in Safari on my iPhone

https://maps.google.com/

there's no traffic feature. Is this just me? This new apple map doesn't have traffic either (and google maps seems much better anyway). Has anyone figured out how to show traffic using google maps through Safari?
