Apple Maps on the Web
Apple Newsroom, last week:
Today, Apple Maps on the web is available in public beta,
allowing users around the world to access Maps directly from their
browser.
Now, users can get driving and walking directions; find great
places and useful information including photos, hours, ratings,
and reviews; take actions like ordering food directly from the
Maps place card; and browse curated Guides to discover places
to eat, shop, and explore in cities around the world.
Additional features, including Look Around, will be available
in the coming months.
All developers, including those using MapKit JS, can also link out
to Maps on the web, so their users can get driving directions, see
detailed place information, and more.
Apple Maps is one of the best examples of the power of persistence I can think of. It started as a laughing stock, but now, for people in many countries, it’s arguably the best maps service.
