Can we use Google Maps JavaScript API v3 without Map purpose?

Question

I want to develop an IOS app, that will use Google Maps JavaScript API v3, but I dont want to display any information as Map.

If I just call a URL like -

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=40.81649,73.907807&destination=40.819585,-73.90177&sensor=false

Will it be allowed/restricted from Apple and Google?

I just want to display the departure time, arrival time, transit information etc of stops/stations.

I dont want to display any information on Map, so can I use the above URL in my application?

You can called the Service for the GeoCoding but it's not ethic an violates the terms and used explicit say's that you cannot used this without the maps — Jorge

This is not allowed! You may only use Google Maps Data if you are displaying a map that is publicly accessible. See section 9.1 of the TOS and 10.1.1 (g) "No Use of Content without a Google Map.":
