An example of Apple Maps’ Look Around function
Apple is bringing Look Around to more areas, including an expansion of existing locations for the Apple Maps feature and into new countries, including Egypt, China, and Turkey.
Apple’s take on Google Street View, Look Around, already covers a large number of cities around the world, but it doesn’t have the same reach as Google’s version. A future expansion could help close the gap.
For the United States, this will include an expansion out from major metropolitan areas to include major and some minor highways. This will mean coverage of some rural areas, not just urban landscapes.
There’s also a list of countries that will get their first Look Around treatments, including Morocco, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, China, Belarus, Turkey, Bulgaria, Mexico, and Slovakia.
