    Google Earth

    Hello everyone, what exactly is Google Earth, and to what audience is it intended for? I noticed today that it was released yesterday on the App Store, and I am not totally sure what it is all about. Thanks!

    honestly I've never used Google Earth, at the time I never really knew why it was that different from Google maps (it might've come first though) but then I didn't care that much

    You've never used Google Earth? It's been out for a few years. http://earth.google.com

    Played around with it for about half an hour this morning, much more stable than Earthscape IMHO. Hasn't crashed on me yet!

    Isn't this app redundant of the built in maps program? I realize it does it better but so did podcaster and they kept that program out of the apps store. I guess it depends who the developer is as well as to if it gets approved in the app store.

    Built-in Maps app = 2D

    Google Earth app = 3D
