At the moment, we have the opportunity to try the English version of Apple Maps beta in a compatible browser. This version provides search functions, navigation and curatorial guides. However, users of Apple devices will not be able to log in through an Apple account, thus they will not be able to access their bookmarks and other information.
Apple plans to expand its web app with additional features in the coming months, such as the ability to provide 360-degree panoramic views. Although Apple Maps has been the second most popular map service until now, Google Maps has long dominated due to its presence on the web since the beginning. These upcoming changes from Apple could significantly affect the market situation.
Since the launch of Apple Maps on Apple devices, the company has been constantly expands with new functions, such as detailed city maps, multi-stop route planning, cycling directions, EV navigation, offline navigation and 3D location viewing. With each update, Apple Maps becomes a stronger competitor to Google Maps.
Do you think Apple has taken a step in the right direction?
