“We launched this new map service knowing that it is a major initiative and we are just getting started with it,” the paper quoted Muller, as saying.

“We are continuously improving it, and as Maps is a cloud-based solution, the more people use it, the better it will get,” she added.

Muller said that the firm ‘is also working with developers to integrate some of the amazing transit apps in the App Store into iOS Maps.’

“We appreciate all of the customer feedback and are working hard to make the customer experience even better,” she added.
