Thanks for the video! The one thing I was hoping for was not mentioned... Step by step, how to: Create a road trip with multiple stops to then BE SAVED for future use. For example, planning a Summer road trip with 6 stops TO SAVE for use when the time comes and also share it with friends for the convoy.
Thank you!

Living in rural Texas and Oklahoma, Apple Maps has put me into some interesting situations with narrow dirt roads and some out-of-the-way directions that were much further than another route would have been.

[ramseagles]

As always, very informative and presented beautifully!!! Thank you.

[KarenSchuessler]

High value and clearly presented! Thank you! I enjoy the verbal directions on Apple Maps much more than Waze, but I have had little experience accessing all its features. This is a big boost!

[RajJohal]

I usually prefer Google maps, but I going try Apple Maps more often, good to have a backup, and competition leads to better products.

[Wellbaby]

I’ve used Apple Maps for several years now but really liked an organized run through of the features. Definitely need to include find my car.

[adriennelyons]

Thank you Dylan! I have been an Apple Maps user for a while but only the basics. I learned a lot from your video. Would you consider doing an expanded version of this video with a focus on CarPlay use? This is how I primarily interact with Apple Maps on a daily basis. Thank you!

[helgapoczos]

Thank you for this excellent guide, Dylan.
I hope you are safe from the LA fires 🙏🏻.

[glennstokes]

I thought I understood Apple Map, however your clear slow detailed explanation has been very helpful!!

[MaiElizabeth]

3:11 I didn’t know there is Street View in Apple Maps!!! Thanks a lot sir for showing this. ❤

[heinerlanz]

Thanks for this excellent video. What I miss in Apple Maps compared to Google Maps is the support for electric vehicles in the sense of calculation and display of charging stops, etc.

[dineshshah]

Extremely well explained with very user-friendly demo. Love it I have learned a lot, and I will continue to use the Apple Maps more so than Google maps now thank you for a great explanation and a great demo and very easy to follow with all the steps you have demonstrated thank you great work well done

[ryaniglesias]

Great video Thank you. I sometimes use both apple map and waze at the same time to test it. My main concern is to get notified of speed cameras, red light cameras and speed traps and waze is so much better that apple so I almost never use apple maps for that reason.

[KennethBilverstone]

Thanks Dylan I’ve been using Apple Maps for quite a time now, but with your guide and spoken in plain clear language I now know a lot more on how to get around Apple Maps quickly 👍😎

[TheEricBooth]

I've been a strictly Apple Maps user for a couple years now and I've had zero regrets. I don't even have Google Maps installed on my phone.

[jeffm]

Thank you for creating this video and sharing. From someone who has begun traveling more, i found the video very informative. I plan to use everything I learned on my next trip

[captainskippy]

I must admit I have preferred Google maps and only used Apple Maps when using CarPlay. I had no idea the versatility of Apple Maps until I watched this video. You have converted me. This being January 2025, I hope you are safe from the California fires.

[mvraman]

Hi Prof. Dylan, enjoyed your presentation, excellent ❤

[hdtravel]

This was really useful - the pace that you go is perfect ( many other YouTube training videos go too fast ) - Apple maps is an awesome app - very useful

[Mike-huyz]

Hope you're not too badly affected by the LA fires 💪. Great video. I learned a lot, thanks.
