    iOS6

    Worth upgrading?

    Quite like Google Maps and always find it useful.... Anything in there that actually make it worth a quick upgrade??

    I like it. Apple maps aren't as bad as everyone makes out. Always worked when I have used it.

    Multiple emails signatures is nice as I use both my iDevices for work emails so having a different signature for work and personal accounts is great. Share Photo streams is nice too.

    There are lots of little tweeks. Like the bluetooth control being at the root of the Settings menu instead of buried down in the menu. I certainly like it.

    iOS 6 is great a lot faster on my 4s.
    As for maps I use navfree. It's great. Walking mode and satnav on road compare to my Tom Tom there is no difference what so ever. Even better it is free.

    Apple maps has let me down on more than one occasion, where google maps wouldn't have.

    If you like google maps, don't upgrade.
    Punto Gt no more!

    Yeah not keen on doing this upgrade to my 4s due to the maps being gash.

    I really don't think they are as bad as some people make out. Got me around London to fine. Plus there are alternatives to the built in maps so for the other benefits it's worth it IMO.
