If you want to use the HERE maps service (formerly Ovi Maps) on iOS, a native iOS SDK is not currently available. To use HERE maps, your best bet (at the moment) would be to use the Mobile HTML5 Framework which can be used for cross-platform mobile HTML5 development

According to the support matrix the following OSes are supported:

  • iOS 4.3+
  • Android 2.2+
  • Meego
  • Blackberry Touch devices OS6, OS7 (experimental)
  • Windows Phone 8.0 (experimental)

It is not possible to use their SDK on the Iphone. They use the Ovi Maps service to promote their mobile phones just like google offers free navigation to android devices.
Therefore I think that they won't open up their API for not Nokia developers in the near future.
