Location services

Just a quick question. When the location isn’t as accurate I know it makes a big blue circle around the person, but where does it come up with the address it lists that has the blue area around it? Thank you in advance!

Dropped Pins wrong

I live in the middle of no where Saskatchewan Canada (Rural farm yard) ....I keep having random people show up in my yard after they were sent a pin for their location. No where near my location. Not once or twice.....several times a year. What could be the problem?

Image Collection - US Backpack Locations Updated - April 2024

Noticed that a bunch of Pedestrian (backpack) locations in the United States got updated for roughly late Spring into Fall 2024. As a Texan, I noticed it namely for us but from what I can tell, several states got updated dates.

https://maps.apple.com/imagecollection/us

Fun tidbit for Texas — since 2020, every year Travis County has been marked as being backpack surveyed for the entirety of that year. However I’m now seeing that Travis County (Austin) is no longer being surveyed for all of 2024 and has been lumped with Bexar, Dallas, and Houston County for March 10, 2024 - May 10, 2024. Very curious!

How can I stop Apple Maps doing a double overlay on lock screen

It’s hard to read the time because of it. I don’t know how to explain it, it’s like the time is underneath as well but slightly off centre so I can’t read it

Route between favorites

I’ve defined two favorites inApple Maps on iOS, each with a complex address that takes a long time to type in correctly. I would like to route directions from one favorite to another. But I can’t seem to get it to work. It wants to route from my location, and when I click on “my location” to redefine it to be a favorite, it only pulls up Recent – not Favorites.

As a business owner, it's really hard to post details on apple maps

Locates in Canada, I recently added my business location(a Restaurant) on the apple maps, it seems extremely difficult to post photos on apple maps, the photos were always not approved for various reasons, the most stupid thing is apple won't let you post photo with text, I don't have a website yet, So most of the time I rely on the pictured menu for customer phones in to order, the only solution is to post menu on Yelp since I see apple maps usually automatically put yelp under business page, but then who use yelp these days, not to mention in order to see details, you and customer have to download yelp? what the crap is that, on ther other side the Google map was like instantly approved all my photos, they also have a section specifically for you to put menu or just the photo of menu which is so convenient. Like I understand apple wants to make their maps clean and easy to use, but not everyone has that kind effort and time to meet apple's standard. Not to mention it's only accessible to iPhone users, which does explains why most of the business on apple maps only have an almost blank page with minimum information. Like who doesn't want to do as much free marketing as possible to attract customers, everyone is trying to put as much info as possible on the maps, but apple is putting so much obstructions and they think they know better than the business owner, it's just not going to work.

Look Around x DCE - Release Comparison

Hey all! I know there's various wikis/posts out there already with this info, but I had a bit of downtime today and decided to do a fun little project comparing all Look Around & DCE (Detailed City Experience) releases into a complete table. I'm basing most of the international location/dates from Wikipedia and the US dates from the MacRumors Apple Maps thread (I'm using the wide release dates, not the beta/preview ones).

I can also add another table in the comments if people want a Look Around to DCE Time-in-Between comparison as well!

EDIT: And apologies, I just realized how rough this looks on mobile 🫠 Better viewing experience if you use Desktop!

How to add a roundabout?

Hello! I noticed that at an intersection where there used to be a stop sign, there is now a roundabout, and I was wondering how to report that! The report feature only allows you to add a stop sign or traffic light, so help is appreciated!
