Google Enables Street View On Google Maps Site For iOS

iOS Maps has still not been update  by the Apple and after the problems with iOS maps were found,the established map makers jumped unto the competition to show iOS users their own maps

Now,Google has enabled its street view in the mobile Google Maps site for iOS.

It’s a stopgap feature as a dedicated Google Maps app is still some way out, but it works well enough. You just search for an address where Street view is available (or drop a pin manually) and hit the peg man icon that’s synonymous with Street View .

You get the familiar 360-degree view that you can pan around with your finger, but there are a few features missing. For one, the awesome compass mode is not available (even though Safari for iOS supports both accelerometer and magnetometer access for JavaScript).

Also, you can’t zoom in to get a closer view of buildings. There are also no transition effects as you navigate the streets.However,landscape mode is available.
