iPhones used to come with Google Maps, but Apple booted Google after the two companies were unable to negotiate a new deal.
The whole thing fell apart over turn-by-turn directions.
The problem for Apple is, everyone (well, almost everyone) hates their maps app.
It's bad at directions, and some of the satellite photos are so distorted they make cities look like they were attacked by the Cloverfield monster.
Given all this, it is pretty funny that, when you take a closer look at the icon Apple has made for its iPhone maps app, you realize that the directions in the app make no sense. They are actually wildly dangerous.
