Apple unveiled the lineup for 2020's Worldwide Developer Conference, announcing what was in store for attendees of the annual event. The five-day conference, which Apple said is in its 31st year.
Apple Maps is set to get bike directions, electric vehicle directions and new guides on iOS 14. A smarter version of the U.S. navigation tool is also expected to reach the UK, Ireland and Canada.
Map to help users travel in a cleaner, ecological and healthy way
As more people try to travel by bicycle and avoid public transportation, Apple is ready to integrate bicycle routes into Maps. They will also tell runners how busy the street is and whether there are stairs on the route. Bicycle routes are initially available only in some cities. These features are also supported by the Apple Watch.
Electric vehicle routing will also be introduced in iOS 14, with tips for reaching charging stations. The idea is to help users to travel in a more ecological and clean way.
Sync with top brands to get new guides
New guides will also be available. Major brands like AllTrails, Complex, The Infatuation, Time Out Group and The Washington Post will make recommendations.
Maps for macOS Upgrade
As for messages, with the arrival of macOS Big Sur, the maps for Mac are being updated. This allows users to get 360-degree videos of a destination, discover nearby attractions with guides and create guides. He will also be able to follow bicycle and electric car routes on a Mac.
