iPhones Applications - With Google Maps


So let’s find the maps and directions on iphone.

Find Yourself: You can find your locations, get directions, and see traffic all from your iphone. Maps on iphone 3G contain GPS and Wi-Fi.

Get Directions: iPhone finds your location through GPS or by triangulating using Wi-Fi and cellular towers. You can also search your points of interest by keyword search. If you search the keyword “coffee” then the iphone would show you every nearby one.

You would get directions from anywhere you want. View a list of turn by turn directions or follow a highlighted map route and track your progress with live GPS tracking.

Different Views For The Maps: Just like Google maps on your computer. Maps on iphone lets you switch between views of Google Map data, satellite images, and a hybrid of both. You can tap on the screen to zoom the views.

See Traffic: The maps on the iphones also shows the traffic information, indicating traffic speed along your route. The traffic on your route is shown with the green, red, and yellow highlights.
