Apple Maps on the web is now available in public beta, allowing users around the world to access Maps directly from their browser. Find local businesses, get place recommendations, view maps and get driving directions.

This is a huge move for Apple and for Apple search products generally. Users no longer need to be in the Apple ecosystem to access Apple Maps, which should, eventually, be a boon to Apple Business Connect as well. And for developers, "including those using MapKit JS", they can "link out to Maps on the web, so their users can get driving directions, see detailed place information, and more."

The aesthetic of this app is absolutely on point - so sleek and inviting! It seems like the team behind this has thought of everything to optimize user experience.
Having Apple Maps on the web is awesome! Love the easy access to driving directions and local business recommendations without needing Apple devices.
I've been using the Apple Maps web beta, and I'm really impressed with its performance so far. The interface is clean and user-friendly, and the map details are quite accurate. However, I'd love to see some additional features like route planning and traffic updates integrated into the web version. Overall, it's a promising start and I'm excited to see how it evolves!
Seems really solid map, Congratulations to your launch, Mate! just gave it a good upvote
Honestly, Google Map has a super deep moat. My bookmarks. Reviews. Those two alone will make the decision to move to Apple Maps super hard. But it's always good to see another player in the web map space....
As an Apple user, I'm not surprised by this, but it does provide another option for users on other platforms. However, I'm skeptical about whether the web version will be sufficient for daily use.
This is a significant advancement in the accessibility of maps. What feature differences exist between the mobile app and the web version?
Well done on bringing Apple Maps online! It will be quite helpful for those of us who would rather browse than utilize an app. I hope this new feature works well for you!
Thank you for releasing Apple Maps online! This will greatly simplify the process of locating nearby companies and obtaining directions straight from a web browser. I hope the public beta goes well!
This is a fantastic addition! Apple Maps on the web will definitely make things easier for users. I have a question Will it support all the same features as the mobile app in the future?
I may be the only person who secretly still uses Apple Maps, but this is very exciting for me!
Awesome job with this release! The ability to get driving directions and view maps from the browser is fantastic.
Hello! this tool looks amazing for engineering teams. Transforming markdowns into interactive notebooks is unbelievably useful. Wishing you the best with the public beta!
