Driving.
Your ultimate road trip.
Driving
Maps gives you at-a-glance information to make every drive a good one. Route planning provides ETAs for future departures based on expected traffic. As you drive, you see real-time traffic, current speed limits and nearby speed cameras. Turning lanes, cycle, bus and taxi lanes, central reservations and pedestrian crossings are displayed in incredible detail. When you approach a complex intersection, Maps switches to a 3D road-level perspective to simplify what’s ahead. Lane guidance prepares you for turns and exits, so you can avoid wrong turns and missed exits. If you drive an electric vehicle, Maps can assess your charge level, elevation and compatible charging stops along your route.1
Public Transport.
Hit all the
right stops.
Public Transport
Getting around town is a breeze with Maps. See real-time information about public transport arrival and departure times, service suspensions, current locations of buses and trains, and connections.2 You can even be alerted when you’re approaching your stop. Nearby departures are just a tap away, and you can pin your favourite lines so the closest ones always show up at the top.

A heightened
way to hoof it.
Walking
Use augmented reality and Indoor Maps to stay on point when you’re on foot. Just raise your iPhone to scan the buildings in the area, and Maps will show step-by-step guidance in augmented reality.3 You can also use Indoor Maps to easily find your way around major airports and shopping centres all over the world. See which restaurants are past security at the airport, where the nearest toilets are, or what floor your favourite chain store is on at the retail park.

Cycling.
Be ready
for
any path,

hill or obstacle.
Cycling
Keep rolling with cycling directions that include an elevation profile of your route.4 Maps will let you know if there’s a steep incline along your way, if you need to carry your bike up stairs, or if there’s a safer, easier route that avoids busy roads. And with voice guidance and Haptic Feedback on Apple Watch, you can stay even more focused on the path ahead.
