MapsOpener Automatically Opens Map Links in Google Maps

iOS (Jailbroken): Now that Google Maps is out for iOS, we're not stuck using Apple Maps to get around. Unfortunately, any map links in apps automatically open up Apple Maps. MapsOpener is a jailbreak tweak that opens those links in Google Maps instead.

MapsOpener essentially changes the default maps app to Google Maps. This means when you open a link to a map online, or from an app, it opens in Google Maps instead of Apple Maps. It's simple, but incredibly handy if you've decided that Google Maps is the better default map app. If you're not jailbroken, you can at least work Google Maps into Siri. We had mixed results getting MapsOpener to open the location in Google Maps, but it's a free tweak if you want to check it out for yourself. You can find MapsOpener in the Big Boss Repository in Cydia.
