iClarified spotted that Google released (too early) an iOS app that lets businesses manage their Google Maps listings.
I am not kidding you. Despite all the bugs and issues with Google Places, with like four different ways to manage your listings - we will be getting yet another way - via an iOS app and probably, I'd assume an Android app as well.
Does the iOS app work with Google Places or Google+ Local or something else? I am not sure.
The app was pulled from the iTunes App Store, so I cannot download it to see. But here are some screen shots from the iClarified blog.

What’s not clear is which kinds of local business owners can actually use the app; some are still stuck in the limbo between Google Places and Google+ Local. Given that situation, my jaw is practically on the ground over the fact that there’s an iPhone app for managing Google business listings.
