Unleash the Full Potential of Apple Maps: Access It Offline Now!
Apple Maps is now leveling up against Google Maps with its new offline support feature No more worries about losing internet connection while navigating as Apple has finally addressed this issue
Until recently, Apple Maps has lagged behind its competitors, particularly Google Maps, in terms of offline support. This has been a major drawback for users who rely on maps for rural areas or during emergencies. However, Apple has now announced that it will be introducing a new offline mode for Maps, complete with turn-by-turn navigation, estimated time of arrival, and place-finding. This is a welcome update for Apple users who have been waiting for this feature for a long time.
Users can now enjoy a new feature that allows them to save a specific area on Apple Maps, similar to the functionality of Google Maps. This feature enables users to access directions in the saved area without an internet connection. Furthermore, this feature is also accessible on the Apple Watch, where users can directly save maps or retrieve saved maps from a connected iPhone. Offline support for Apple Maps can also be experienced on iPads. The upcoming updates, iOS 17, watchOS 10, and iPadOS 17, set to be released later this year, will include the offline maps feature.
