My wife recently tried to upgrade to IOS 4.3 or IOS 5 on her iphone 4 from IOS 4.2.1. She did this to be able to use some apps that required 4.3 or higher. However, when she tried to upgrade the IOS on ITunes, it only gave her the option to upgrade to IOS 6 (no lower options) It was IOS 6 or nothing. However, if she went to IOS 6, she would lose Google Maps, and that is her favorite app. I have IOS 6 on my phone with the new maps app, and it is terrible. We went to the local Apple Store to see if they could load 4.3 or 5 on her phone, and they said she can only get IOS 6. This is crazy. Question #1. Is there any kind of "work-around" so that 4.3 or 5 can be loaded on her phone?
The next question is: Are there any other free map apps out there for the Iphone that are as good, or better than Google Maps? In lieu of that, are there any plans by Apple or Google to make Google Maps compatible with IOS 6? Thanks. Dave.
