Apple Maps has made a significant leap forward by adding ‘Look Around’ to its web version. This highly anticipated feature, Apple’s answer to Google’s ‘Street View,’ allows users to explore their surroundings through smooth, panoramic imagery captured by camera-equipped cars. Initially launched for mobile and desktop versions in 2019, Look Around now extends to Apple Maps on the web, making it a powerful tool for exploring major cities across the globe.
Using Look Around is simple: just click the binoculars icon at the top-right corner to dive into a street-level view. Users can easily navigate streets, rotate the view to take in the surroundings, and even expand to full-screen for a more immersive experience. The feature is available in locations across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and more, with a complete list on Apple’s website.
With its enhanced privacy focus and growing capabilities, Apple Maps continues to position itself as a worthy competitor in the mapping space.
