Turn by turn navigation in iPhone application

Question

I am developing an iPhone application for restaurants. I have used mapkit to show the locations of restaurants. User also have option to see route to a particular location (restaurant) from the current location. I need to add turn by turn navigation in it. I am using google maps and somewhere I read that iPhone does not show turn by turn navigation because that is restricted in Apple-Google contract for maps. Is it really true? If it is, then is there any other way or any 3rd party library, by which I can implement turn by turn navigation?

Thanks in advance

yeah, it has apple maps, but that is full of bugs. Sometimes it shows route that in reality doesn't exists. I can't use that until apple releases updated maps. — Prateek Chaubey, Oct 15 '12 at 21:36

Your best option for navigation is to let the user choose the turn by turn they want: - Apple Maps using the maps.apple.com - Google Maps using the maps.google.com other apps, such as Navigon, Tom tom.

It is a complicated feature and you're much better off not taking responsibility for any shortcomings of services.

Google Maps licence agreement prevents you from doing turn by turn.
