I would like to get an official statement by either company before I jump to conclusions. I seem to recall someone at google claiming that Apple had not yet approved the Maps app and it wasn't even submitted yet. Apple used to do a lot of sketchy stuff like this, so we all assume it's true. But until I see something official, then I'll hold judgement.

Treehouse's comment is included in the post:

We teach Android at Treehouse as well, but Apple has refused to let us release the app while including Android content. At the time of review several other applications in the App Store included Android content, but in our case we were told it was against App Store guidelines to have Android content in our app.

Some tech "reporter" heard that some Googler was concerned that Apple may reject the app: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2012/nov/05/google-maps...

Actually, the article I wanted to see was mentioned above: http://tech.co/treehouse-ipad-app-2013-07. Coming from a press release, or a quote from the CEO. TNW however did not relay who the quote was coming from, and some random guy at treehouse may not have all the facts. But apparently, Apple is up to it's old tricks.

I'm more irritated by waiting 6 months to approve an Siri competitor app:

It's the same as censorship... Apple can copy the Google Now features, update their app.

And 2 months later they approve Google Now... Tell me where something like that isn't anti-competitive behaviour.
