Since it's an app, I would assume google would do it for the IPhone as well, despite android being run by google, any word on something like this coming down the pipe for Iphone?

iPhone's problem here is that google doesn't need to port that feature over to iPhone and can keep it as a selling point for android devices. A couple of years ago Apple bought a map company and I can see them ditching Google maps in iOS6. That way they could do their own turn by turn navigation and not be reliant on their main competitor.
