Hello Friends,
I have MotionX as the GPS app on my iPhone. However, yelp and other apps link an address to Google Maps. How can I set the default GPS app of my iPhone to MotionX? Also how can I copy address from Google Maps and send it to MotionX?

There's no real way to do what you want to do. You can't make MotionX the "default gps app". To copy an address from google, you're going to have to highlight what you can, and paste it into MotionX.

yep and google doesn't really let us copy the address anyway. MotionX uses Bing. How does it compare to Google Maps.

Better, actually. It has found many addresses that google couldn't find at all. A neighborhood that has been completed within the last month has been added to Bing! but not google....

Plus, Bing! found an address at Cedars-Sinai that Google did not. Cedars has been around for a LONG time.
