NB:
Apple users who have upgraded to iOS 6 have been expressing their
dissatisfaction with the performance of Apple Maps.
The first edition of the service has been beset with glitches, inaccurate
data
I suggest you get Google Maps back on your homescreen in these easy
steps:
1) Go to Settings > Privacy > Location. Turn Location Services "On" and
also make sure the tab next to Safari is “On”.
2) Open Safari webpage and go to maps.google.com
3) Click on the “share button” to the left of the address bar and then "add
to the homescreen".
