How To Access Street View
------------------------------------------------
When viewing Google Maps, tap and drag the yellow Pegman™ to a street to access StreetView.
DuoMaps works on iPhone and iPad with iOS 8 and iOS 9.
Please note: The app requires an Internet connection to function and works best when it has access to your location. Not all streets are Street View enabled.
† Not all countries and regions have Street View available. The app only provides Street View for the regions where it is available.
‡ Directions and route planning only available in certain countries

Yet another case of greedy developers saying “Oops—we didn’t rip off our customers enough when we first released our app, so let’s quick strip basic functionality and hold it hostage for a subscription fee!” You already charged us to download the app years ago, and I have no problem with that—after all, developers deserve to be paid for their work. However, this bait-and-switch tactic after the fact (removing features we already use and have already paid for) is completely dishonest, and it is a trend that needs to stop. Charging a subscription fee for a service (street view) that we can get for free on a dozen other apps, desktop, and mobile browsers is nothing more than a shameless money grab, and you know it. Developers of a map app suddenly losing their moral “compass”? If nothing else, I guess you’ve provided us with the very definition of irony. App deleted.
It use to be a good app... Then they got greedy. TOTAL RIP OFF!!! This app is not worth a 10 dollar a year subscription
You now want to charge a subscription fee to people wanting to see street viewing when other apps are allowing this for no additional cost? No thank you! I liked this app but paying that amount to just check a certain street is asinine. Sorry, but I must delete this app.
I have never looked for a place that I was not on able to fine… Gives you a total visual reference to the location you’re trying to locate!!!
Since I got my first iPad some years ago, this has been my favorite app. Its design makes it much easier than any other map app to use for navigation, street view, and my profession/hobby of geology. Having satellite from both Apple and Google is great because I can choose the one that displays the best view of my target street travel or geologic feature. The street view control is easier than other map apps, and the labels are a good size. Very legible, but not so big they obscure the map. I know several users are unhappy about the new subscription, but it was necessitated by an increase in costs that are beyond the developers' control. It was not a case of greed. Having looked at similar apps, I was delighted by the low price of the DuoMaps subscription and feel that it is well worth the price of two lattes for a year of use. It sure beats the possibility of losing DuoMaps entirely.
I really do like this app. But your sites need to be updated.
