After years of waiting, Apple has added bicycle routing to its “Maps” app. An essential feature for estimating rides and safety.
This is an option that we, cyclists, have been waiting for a long time. A few days ago, in early June, the Bicycle option appeared in Maps. A feature available for several years on the major competitor Google Maps.
If you’re not an experienced cyclist, several options are available regarding routes. It is now possible to choose a route with less elevation gain, avoiding hills, or cycling and car traffic, to ensure a certain safety. Like other modes of transport, several options are available to you.
The route changes in real time depending on the path you take. It also allows you to use bike lanes.
The Maps application is free and built into your iPhone from the moment you purchase it. It is highly recommended to have a holder for your phone mounted on your handlebars during your ride.
It should also be noted that the Maps app is not available in all countries, but France has the feature.
