谷歌地图在iOS6 [英] Google Maps in iOS6

问题描述

回顾iOS 6上的Google地图支持。

这是一个严肃和建设性的问题，必须解决很多已经发布的应用程序开发者他们在iOS 5上的应用程序，并与遵守Google服务条款的合法合规性相关 http：/ /code.google.com/apis/maps/iphone/terms.html 。

实际情况如下：使用Google Maps API网络服务的应用程序必须涉及在Google地图上显示信息。禁止在不显示谷歌地图的应用程序中使用服务。

假设某些开发人员在App Store上有可下载的应用程序，用户已下载它正在使用它。当用户使用iOS 6更新手机时，苹果地图将会代替谷歌地图显示，突然间突破了Google的许可条款。

应用程序从谷歌许可证立场变成'事实上的'，数千用户将使用一个已经变得非法的应用程序，我想不出一种技术方法来防止这种情况。

我们如何处理这个问题？

• 容忍旧的应用程序仍然可以在这个
  上下文中使用吗？


• 谷歌准备他们自己的Mapkit API，我们可以在iPhone上使用
  它可以在以前的IOS版本上使用所以开发人员可以在IOS6发布之前更新
  应用程序。


• 苹果是否可以提供一个选项来显示Google Map，以填补空白，直到他们提供类似的Web服务？ >
  

欢迎任何有建设性的想法？

PS。我也将这些问题发布到谷歌和苹果公司。

解决方案

好的问题！

我建议你向苹果公司提供一个雷达，并在 http://www.openradar.me/ 上复制它。

至于您的问题：

谷歌能够忍受这种情况下仍然可以使用旧的应用吗？

他们可以，而且我相信在实践中他们很可能。

Google正在准备他们自己的Mapkit API，我们可以在iPhone上使用它，可以在之前的IOS版本上使用，这样开发人员可以在IOS6发布之前更新他们的应用程序？

很可能。但我怀疑它会及时准备好让您在iOS 6发布前更新您的应用程序。

Apple可以提供静态选项显示谷歌地图来缩小差距，直到他们提供类似的Web服务？

我不这么认为。我不认为他们会这么想，我认为他们与谷歌的许可合同将在不久的将来到期。

Coming back on this Google Maps support on iOS 6.

This is a serious and constructive issue that has to be addressed for a lot of apps developers who already released their Apps on iOS 5 and tied to legal compliance towards Google terms of service http://code.google.com/apis/maps/iphone/terms.html.

The fact is the following: applications using Google Maps API Web Services must relate to the display of information on a Google Map. Use of the service in an application that doesn't display a Google map is prohibited.

Say some developpers have an application available for download on the App Store, users have downloaded it and are using it. When the users will update their phones with iOS 6, Apple Maps will be displayed in place of Google Maps, breaking all of a sudden the Google terms of license.

The application becomes 'de facto' from a Google license stand point, thousands of users will use an app which has become illegal and I can't think of a technical way to prevent this.

How do we deal with this this?

• Can google be kind enough tolerate old apps can still be used in this context?
• Is google preparing their own Mapkit API we could use on iPhone could it be available on previous IOS releases so developers could update their apps before IOS6 is released?
• Can Apple provide an option to still display Google Map to bridge the gap until their provide similar Web services?

Any constructive ideas are welcomed?

PS. I am also posting those questions to Google and Apple.

Good question!

(And to potential close-voters: The fact that Apple will provide their own mapping is public)

I'd suggest you file a radar with Apple, and duplicate it on http://www.openradar.me/

As to your questions:

Can google be kind enough tolerate old apps can still be used in this context?

They could, and I believe in practice they probably will be.

Is google preparing their own Mapkit API we could use on iPhone could it be available on previous IOS releases so developers could update their apps before IOS6 is released?

Very probably. But I doubt it'll be ready in time for you to update your app before iOS 6 release.

Can Apple provide an option to still display Google Map to bridge the gap until their provide similar Web services?

I don't think so. I don't think they'd want to, and I think their licensing contract with Google will expire in the not-too-distant future.
