Aiming to make GPS navigation better and ride-hailing easier for iPhone
users in India, Apple on Thursday rolled out turn-by-turn directions as
well as support for cab-hailing apps Uber and Ola in Apple Maps in the
country.
"Adding regional turn-by-directions makes owning Apple
devices that much more appealing for domestic customers, as Apple Maps
integrates so well with the system platforms.
"You could always
download a third-party maps app on the App Store, but features like
proactive alerts, or Apple Watch navigation are best offered by Apple
Maps," 9to5Mac reported.
Apple Maps' rival Google Maps has been
the de facto navigation application in India for quite some time now,
thanks to the popularity of Android and the driving, walking and public
transport modes in it.
Disregarding quality of source data, many
people prefer to use Apple Maps, because of its prettier, cleaner and
ad-free user interface, the report added.
