I'd like to use the Google Directions API on iOS 6 but I'm concerned about Sections 10.1.1g in the Maps API Terms of Service, which states that content must be displayed exclusively on a Google map. Am I allowed to use the Google Directions API and display the results using MapKit on iOS 6?

I am using Google Maps Direction Api to create a Route with about 16 Waypoints excluding Origin and Destination
In the Google Maps Direction Api everything is showing fine, 16 Waypoints + Origin and Destination as a route.
Now I want to send this route to a mobile phone / tablet so that people can use that route.
For that I am building my own URL with the help of Google URL Api
The problem is that google maps is limiting the Webmap/app with 9 Waypoints so i can only get Origin+Destination+9 Waypoints instead of the 16 Waypoints.
Is there any way to force google to display every waypoint?
example link: link
Unfortunately this is not currently possible. As per Google's documentation:
The number of waypoints allowed varies by the platform where the link
opens, with up to three waypoints supported on mobile browsers, and a
maximum of nine waypoints supported otherwise.
However, there is a feature request to allow more than 9 waypoints in Maps URLs in Google's issue tracker. You can view it and star it to get updates on it:

Hope this helps!
The problem of displaying the gray block when the map is loaded.
I tried both versions of the maps.
Native maps is not very suitable for many reasons, but it is loaded without gray blocks.
Google Maps API is completely suitable, but there is a problem when loading the map. Is it possible to somehow map the cache so that it is displayed as a native map?

I understand you are using the Google Maps JavaScript API with Ionic 2. If so,
have a look at the following feature request in the public issue tracker:

Trying to implement a search feature for USA cities in my IOS app. My goal is to use Google's Autocomplete API while legally avoiding the use of a Google map.
So, if I use Places Autocomplete API to display a list of suggested cities as the user types do I have to use a Google map if I geocode the chosen autocomplete result through apple with CLGeocoder?
Google says you must use their data in their maps. However, if I geocode through Apple to retrieve the coordinates for display on a map, the map data isn't coming from Google. Is this legal?
I know Airbnb uses Googles places api but they use Apple maps.
According to Places API Policies:
If your application displays Google Places API Web Service data on a map, that map must be provided by Google.
If your application displays Google Places API Web Service data on a page or view that does not also display a Google Map, you must show a "Powered by Google" logo with that data. For example, if your application displays a list of places on one tab, and a Google Map with those places on another tab, the first tab must show the "Powered by Google" logo.
So you can use Places autocomplete without a Google map, but in this case the logo is required.

Is there any way to get that exact result:

(without details box, only pointer on map with place icon) but using Google Maps API Web Services v3 and not embed api?
I am wondering if there is the option of hiding some information that google shows you by default, as subway stations, or public spaces names. I've been searching the web but few comments I have found. I don't want to display some transports info.
Does google maps api 3 allows you to do that?
Yes, Google Maps API V3 does allow you to remove or change information using Styled Maps:
