Yes but also portable, low-cost GPS enabled internet connected devices are a game-changer. I don't see how Uber or Lyft could exist prior to the iPhone pushing adoption of GPS.

Did the iPhone so the most to push adoption? iPhone 1 didn't have GPS but the first Android device did. The killer app on mobile phones has always been Maps. I'd give Google the most credit here.
