Google Maps becomes the App Store’s most popular free app, just 7 hours after launch
After months of posturing and reports of feuds between Google and Apple, Google Maps launched on the App Store earlier today. The app is already the number one most downloaded app on Apple’s marketplace, seven hours after it became available.
The app has been very well received, receiving a 4.5/5 rating on the UK App Store from 1,026 ratings (or 8,975 on the US store). It has ousted Apple’s own ’12 Days of Christmas’ app, as iPhone and iPod touch owners download Google’s new Maps title to complement or even replace Apple’s own.
