I'm saying that many people on the Internet are overreacting. It's obvious that Apple WILL update their maps, but people are acting as though its the end of the world.
Let's be honest. I hate iOS Maps too, it isn't that precise and some things really go off point. But is it a major flop? No. Apple will update their maps to correct these. They just need time to correct them.
However, I must admit that these mistakes are extremely off. Unless the one responsible is actually TomTom, Apple really deserves some hate in this aspect.
The thing is, many people depend on navigation software to go around. Yes, some people can be so easily misguided by the voice of the navigator that such blatant errors can lead to serious accidents. Even when you're not easily misguided, when you're on the motorway, following the map when all of a sudden all you see is a grey blob, you might panic.
I don't remember ever seeing such a mess in a navigator - at least not in AutoMapa, TomTom or MioMaps.
