Revamped Apple Maps Now Being Tested in Spain and Portugal
Thursday April 22, 2021 8:35 am PDT by Joe Rossignol
Apple has started testing its revamped Maps experience in Spain and Portugal this week, as noticed by MacRumors reader Jordi Guillamet. This follows the redesigned Apple Maps becoming available in Canada late last year.
During the testing period, the updated maps will only be visible to some users.
The revamped Apple Maps experience provides more detailed views of roads, buildings, parks, airports, malls, and more, along with faster and more accurate navigation. The updated maps started rolling out in the United States in late 2018, followed by the United Kingdom and Ireland in October 2020 and Canada in December 2020.

What is Apple up to with its Maps?
So, I don’t know what this all means yet, but something is weird about Apple Maps. But it’s not Apple Maps that matters. Let me explain.
Apple Maps analyst/enthusiast/super-user Justin O’Beirne has a new super-detailed essay regarding maps and how Apple and Google are working on the same problems and how they compare.
It focuses on Apple’s very slow rollout of Look Around, the macOS/iOS-only take on Google Maps Street View.
What’s happening is that despite Apple announcing back in June 2019 that its mapping vehicles had “driven over four million miles,” Apple’s attempt at Street View is not good. It’s incredibly limited.
