We know that since the release of Android, Apple has been reducing Google's participation in the company's operating system. For example, we have the removal of Gmail and Youtube, applications that had been installed by default in the apple system. It also has Google Maps, replaced by a (not so good) version of the company itself.
The only rest of Google on Apple devices is with Search, which is the default iOS search engine. But until this is over. That's because the contract between companies will close in early 2015 and, as it turns out, it would be the perfect opportunity for Apple to get rid of Mountain View's company for good.
Sources linked to the company claim that Microsoft and Yahoo! would be tightening ties with Apple in order to replace this search engine. We still don't know how many negotiations are going on or whether they're really going on, but it all indicates that Google will not have its (very well paid) renewed contract.
It is, clearly a pool of beaks, because if this really happens, the experience of using iOS devices can be compromised, just as it happened with the troubled substitution of Google Maps by Apple Maps. But if it is replaced, we have both possibilities with the Bing, which is the default Spotlight search engine in OS X Yosemite, and with the Yahoo!, which is now the default Firefox search engine, from Mozilla.
There is also, although remote, the possibility that Apple is working on its own solution for the devices, as it did with Apple Maps. But in development vision, it is much easier to offer a map service than a Google and Bing search pattern. That wouldn't be just a few months' work. Not likely, but not impossible.
And you think Apple should replace Google with Bing or Yahoo!?
