New version: MTDirectionsKit

MTDirectionsKit

Matthias Tretter, released an update for his feature rich directions-mapping framework, MTDirectionsKit, this past week. Check it out!



MTDirectionsKit is a framework to draw routes inside your iOS App on top of MKMapView.

MTDirectionsKit is a full-featured, easy to use solution to show directions in your App, directly on top of MKMapView. Not only will your users thank you for not throwing them out of your App, it will also distinguish your App from all the others that don’t offer this functionality.
