Apple announced a lot of software updates at WWDC 2023, including various upgrades and features to its existing suite of iPhone apps that will arrive as part of iOS 17 later this year. One of those upgrades involves adding offline navigation to Apple Maps — a feature that is well overdue.
I’m not a regular Apple Maps user, stemming from the fact I’ve primarily been an Android user for the past 12 years or so. In fact, the revelation that Apple Maps doesn’t have offline mapping was a huge shock to me, especially since Google launched this feature back in 2015.
