Comparison of reverse geocoding by Google and by Apple

Question

I need to compare reverse geocoding by Google and by Apple

I'm developing an app for iOS and plan to port it to Android, and it's crucially important that the names given by Google and Apple geocoder would be the same.

I compared how they work in some locations and didn't see the difference. But the fact that I didn't find it doesn't mean that there isn't one.

So my question is: are the names given by Apple and Google reverse geocoder different?

Answer 1

This probably doesn't answer your question, but you could just use google's geocoding api in both your iOS and android apps. iOS can get JSON data from google's apis and turn it into a NSDictionary which you can read, so there is no reason you have to use the iOS library.

Answer 2

Don't forget in google's terms of use, it says you can only display the data on google maps.
