Google replaces Google Places for iOS with Google+ Local, adds voice search and new UI

Last month, Google replaced their Google Places service with a new service called Google+ Local. The new service takes the best of Google Places and merges it with Google+’s business places feature. Today, Google has swapped their Google Places iOS application with a new Google+ Local app. The new app features a tweaked user interface in addition to a voice-based search feature. The app is supported on the iPhone and iPod touch and is free on the App Store.
