Excuse me but I am an avid TH reader. Perhaps you need to stop generalising. And I love the GMA. Keep it up Google and my next stop is SGIV! Screw you apple I'm going android.

Yay Google Maps! Def a one-up on Apple. I wonder why Google didnt offer all of the features it offered its Droid Maps version before now for iOS?!? Apple stated Google wanted to keep key features from iOS and felt Apple needed to dev its own Maps app. Go figure!

The application currently has nearly 13,000 reviews and is rated at 4.5 stars. Nearly 11,000 of the reviews carry five star ratings.

So nearly 2000 employees of Apple reviewed Google maps and gave it less than 5 stars.

"with YouTube and Google Earth taking spots three and four, respectively. Spots two and five are occupied by two games, Fun Run and Interlocked."

Not per the graphic. Looks to me like Angry birds is #3.

Thanks for pointing that out :) People think Apple did this because they didn't want Google Maps - The Google provided maps app hadn't been updated by Google since iOS 3... It was old and archaic. Google wasn't going to develop and application for a competing platform to Android... The rest is history....
