Apple shun Google with the release of the IOS.6

Google Maps view of Apple stores worldwide

Apple and Google are two of the biggest companies in the world both in terms of revenue and audience.

Apple used Google maps in their Iphone 4 and 4s which are used by over 100 million people worldwide. On Monday Apple IOS 6 was announced. They stated that the affiliation with Google maps, will end with its release as they are developing a new mapping system with Tom-tom.

This has stirred debate over what it will mean for both companies.

Experts have said that Apple should benefit from having their own mapping system whilst Google may be affected negatively as they will lose a huge chunk of the Google maps audience.

Are we going to live in an Apple shaped world soon?
