GENIUS TIP
iOS 16 and watchOS 9 enable you to create multi-stop journeys and change the stop order. Ideal for family drop-offs and pick-ups.
DO YOU REMEMBER the first time you used Maps on your Apple Watch? We do, because it made us feel concerned. We were driving, when we first felt the haptic alerts on our wrist - there was panic as we thought something was wrong with our Watch. Today, though, we use Maps all the time and are rarely concerned rather, it makes our life so much easier. Maps can advise us of the best way to get places, ensuring we get off at the correct bus stop, remembering places we've searched for when we can't quite remember where they were, even what they were called or when we visited them.
MARVELLOUS MAPS
Maps was a great app to begin with and today it's even better. It's great for travelling on foot, on public transit, and in the car. And in many cities it's also brilliant for cyclists, with extra information that helps you avoid overly strenuous cycle routes. It's also great for finding useful and/or interesting places when you're in an area you don't know.
