What is the Apple Maps app?
Apple Maps is a web mapping service developed by Apple Inc. The default map system of iOS provides directions and estimated times of arrival for driving, walking, cycling, and public transportation navigation in your iPhone. You can view, share, and zoom in or out to see the details that you need.
How to move, zoom, and rotate a map or a 3D globe:
- Move around in a map: Drag the map with your fingers to move it around.
- Zoom in or out: Double-tap (leaving your finger on the screen after the second tap), then drag up to zoom in or drag down to zoom out. Or, pinch open or closed on the map.
- On a 2D map, a scale appears in the upper left while you zoom. To change the unit of distance, go to Settings > Maps, then select In Miles or Kilometers.
