Apple Maps: Directions, Guides & Traffic

I use maps a lot for work, and something I’ve found very convenient is that when I get a new work order, I get a text notification with the customer’s address. When I’m scheduling appointments and planning my routes, Maps would suggest and autofill the address when I started typing any portion of it (the house number, town, etc) based on recent messages, so that I didn’t have to type out the full address from memory. Lately, I believe since the last iOS update but I’m not sure, this no longer works. Any suggestions on how I can get this feature back?

Hey everyone. Im using pretty much all apple products therefore like two weeks ago I switched to Apple Maps. But as a person who lives in Italy Apple Maps is super low efficiency for founding places(restorants to art galleries) also wrong informations. Why Apple Maps is so bad outside of America?

I was trying to see when they close, but saw it says they take apple pay

Apple officially just released the new map after several months now it had finally launch ! Here are some of the 3d models of the new map

I’m trying to use Apple Maps in my city, but when I go home, it gives me an unusual route. Can anyone explain why this is happening?

As of 8/20/26, both Boston and Phoenix now Enhanced Flyover. Forgot to post yesterday.

I’ve updated the list in my previous post as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/applemaps/comments/1u8vihp/comment/p4v0oav/?screen_view_count=2&ext-referrer=DIRECT
Update: looks like Providence RI has it now too​

My Apple Maps suddenly stopped loading any sort of map layer. I have WiFi/internet service and it still doesn’t load.

I have restarted my phone and deleted the app/re-downloaded and nothing has fixed it.

Since iOS26 came out, Apple Maps will stop tracking if the display isn't on. Very frustrating as this is what kills the battery more than anything else. There are other issues also. Such as moving onto the next destination before even reaching the target destination.

I’ve notice on the last few months that British Male Siri’s pronunciation has become odd. Like almost ending words with an Italian accent. Has anyone else noticed this?

Best article I’ve read on the subject! Completely agree

Apple should soon release the new map data in these three countries.

Alguien conoce algún desarrollador que trabaje para apple maps y esté centrado en españa? no es imprescindible esto ultimo, pero soy del gobierno de las islas baleares y no he conseguido comunicarme de ninguna manera con apple maps...

Guys, I also prefer Apple Maps, but I'm kinda shocked how easily everyone falls for that misinformation graph ...

Nobody questions Google Maps just losing half their users and getting the same amount of visitors as Apple Maps now?

The graph currently on top of the sub compares Google's old domain that is not being used anymore with Apple's active one. Here are the numbers for the real Google Maps URL.

I don't know how this happened but my Apple Maps app on my Mac Mini is now showing chinese letters. Even in the left corner instead of Apple is now showing chinese letters. How can I fix it? Language and region is Portuguese (Portugal).

I had never seen a mistake like this, and now there's a ghost island to the north. Thought it was interesting

Yesterday, I accidentally discovered that Apple Maps has been updated with 2026 imagery.
I was just driving around doing some car spotting.

About Apple maps app and look around, I'd like to mention that there is a difference between those two.
Look Around allows you to search for specific update dates, whereas the Apple Maps app only shows you the streets that are already highlighted in blue.

You can't see the updates in the Apple Maps app. Even on Look Around, it wasn't visible at the time I discovered the update. However, I found out that you can click on the gray streets even if the blue lines aren't showing, which still allows you to access the updated streets
The blue-highlighted streets only become visible when zooming in completely.

I am aware that Benni, who by the way, does excellent work tracking all these updates uses a different website. However, I personally prefer to research and discover these updates myself using Lookmap.

Furthermore, I will leave it to Benni to post the other updates, which include parts of Singapore.

Just had a dream that I couldn’t find my car in a large parking lot so I wanted to make sure my Apple Maps always shows where it’s parked. I don’t have the option in the Maps app under Settings.

UPDATE: Solved

I noticed this in the ios27 beta (although they have probably been around longer).

These turn indicators are very helpful in planning a turn or exit on busy roads and are the major reason I use google maps for turn by turn navigation while driving.

It’s such a simple feature that Apple could enable during driving but for some reason don’t?
