Travel Smarter With the Apple Maps Guide

Apple Maps has not always been a great app, which is why many Apple users have historically opted for third-party apps. While many of us have gotten used to using alternatives, Apple Maps has stepped up its game. Today, it has fantastic hidden features that make it one of the best map apps available for the iPhone! The Apple Maps Guide will teach you all the tips and tricks needed to make you a master navigator.


There are so many ways to use Apple's Maps app to make your life easier. Our guide will teach you how to set your favorite addresses so that you can navigate to them in an instant! Plus, you'll learn how to access guides within the app to help you find local gems such as hidden beaches. It will even walk you through skills like tracking your parked car with location pins and creating curated lists of places you'd like to visit, complete with efficient and accurate directions.

The great thing about iPhone Life guides is that they can be printed as PDFs or viewed online as a selection of videos organized into sections for your convenience! The Apple Maps Guide will cover basics such as using the search field on the main screen of the app to find addresses, landmarks, businesses, or cities. It will also teach you more features such as using Siri to begin turn-by-turn navigation to any destination using just your voice!

On top of learning how to get from point A to point B using this powerful app, the Apple Maps Guide will also help you discover your new favorite places. For example, it will show you how to take advantage of the Nearby feature to find unique destinations and businesses in your area that you might never discover on your own!
