Why isn't the iphone apple map linked to other apps

since changing the ios the iphone now has maps supported by apple.  since this is the case why don't other apps prompt the iphone map app to open.  some apps like lowes, home depot, target, walmart apps direct users to google maps via the internet.

This is a technical forum.  Nobody here will know the answer.  The answer requires speculation about why companies behave the way they do.

  • My new registered apple ID does not match the ID that comes up on my iphone. I can't update the iphone Apple id and therefore get apps updated.

    My new registered apple ID doesn't match the ID that comes up on my iphone. The old id is an old email address, and the phone gives me no way to change the id on the phone. I've searched the Apple ID website and done all I can there. Meanwhile, I cannot connect or update apps such as icloud. What can I do?

    Future purchases are made with the Apple ID in Settings>Store>Apple ID.  If you want to change this tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using an alternate ID.  App updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to originally purchase the app being updated, regardless of whether or not your email has changed, or you have created a new Apple ID.

  • Why isn't the iPhone camera full screen?

    iPhone 6 camera on iOS 8 is amazing but the advantage of bugger iPhone screen isn't taken in the Camera, I think full screen camera for iphone would be better.

  • Why Isn't the iPhone 5c front part available in white? Not just black?

    I was just wandering because I think they're should he too options either a black iPhone & a white one.

    That was a decision by Apple. Only they know the reason. On a side note to help you learn English, it should have been there instead of they're and two instead of too. The he was a typo for be. I have done those sometimes.

  • Why isn't the Apple store working?

    Why isn't the Apple store working? I wanted to buy a iPad but I can't because the store isn't working. When will the store start working?

    Apple is in the midst of announcing new products and they normally take the Apple Store offline while a keynote is in progress. The Apple Store will be back up when the keynote is over. Try back in about a half an hour or so.
    Regards.

  • I hate the new Apple Map.  The directions are confusing.  How do I get google maps back on my iPad and iPhone?

    I hate the New Apple Map.  The directions are confusing and do not continue by pressing 'next.'  How do I get Google Maps back to my iPad and iPhone?  Thank you.

    Start Safari
    Enter the URL:  http://maps.google.com/#bmb=1
    tap "Go"
    Now that you have Google Maps up on Safari, tap the bottom center icon (box with arrow pointing to the right).
    Select "Add to Home Screen".
    You will now have a Google Maps icon on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch that will take you to Google maps.
    There are other map services available.  MapQuest, Waze, NavFree, OffMaps, etc...

    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer

  • Why doesn't the iPhone 5 have the call bar feature like the 4S does?

    Why doesn't the iPhone 5 have the call bar feature like the 4S does?

    From the Swype website:
    Why isn’t Swype available for iPhone/iPad/BlackBerry/Windows Phone?
    Due to the technical design of some operating systems, it is not possible for third party keyboards (such as Swype) to be offered at this point in time. Please communicate to your device/OS manufacturer that you’d like to see Swype available as a keyboard option!

  • Why isn't the first generation iPad not supported by iOS 6?

    I am totally confused. Why isn't the first iPad supported in iOS 6?
    iPad 1: Apple A4 1GHz processor and 256 mb RAM
    iPod Touch 3G: 800 MHz processor (same as iPhone 3GS) and 256 mb RAM
    iPhone 3GS: 800 MHz processor (underclocked to 600 i believe)

    3GS is still sold officially and new. iPad first generation isn't. Android is even worse about things like this.
    PLEASE don't branch this into twenty different threads, and keep it in the two that already exist.

  • Why isn't the edit button not showing in my ESX24 sampler?

    why isn't the edit button not showing in my ESX24 sampler?

    Is that during installation when you see the two icons.. the one on the left looking like a Garageband guitar icon, the one on the right like the Logic Pro platimum record icon?
    Yes.. that one.. with the choice to click on which option you want/are coming from...
    p.s. I'll probably aquire a Mac Mini this fall then upgrade.... I mean repurchase!
    I think I managed to grab one of the last of the 2011 refurb'ed MMS's.... at that super low price Apple were selling them for... before they bumped it up and now, they seem to have none left at all at any price
    However, just in case, I have found this site really useful at keeping track of Apple's refurb stock... and pricing
