Google Maps for iOS gets offline navigation

Following updates on Android, Google Maps gets a new bunch of features. These include offline maps support, which lets you save a portion of the map onto your iPhone or iPad. The new update also lets you get turn-by-turn navigation, business hours, and contact details while offline. These maps will stay on your device for 30 days. Unfortunately, mass transit, walking, and biking directions still need to be accessed online.

Maps on iOS update also now gets gas prices and the ability to see when local businesses are busy throughout the week or on a given day.
