Overview Turn by Turn Traffic Flyover

8. Designed by Apple from the ground
up, Maps gives you turn‐by‐turn
spoken directions, interactive 3D
views, and the stunning Flyover
feature.1 All of which may just make
this app the most beautiful, powerful
mapping service ever.

9. Completely Re‐imagined
Maps uses a vector‐based engine that keeps text
crisp, graphics clear, and panning and zooming
smooth and responsive. Want to explore? Tilt and
rotate to view an area and Maps keeps the names
of the streets and places where they belong. So
everything’s easy to read, and you won’t get lost.

10. Turn‐by‐Turn Navigation
Find your way to your destination using turn‐by‐turn
spoken directions, a 3D view, and real‐time traffic
information. As you approach a turn, Maps speaks
directions, so you can keep your eyes on the road. In
addition, the screen turns into a 3D perspective view
of the road ahead. Large signs and arrows
superimposed over the image show you which way to
go and how long it’s going to take to get there —
even if your screen is locked. As you approach a turn,
the camera angle changes dynamically to show you
where to go. If you miss a turn, don’t worry. Maps
automatically reroutes you and updates your ETA.

11. Traffic
With Maps, you get real‐time traffic information
to calculate your ETA. Maps gives you details on
what’s causing a backup, so you can tell if there’s
a major incident or just a temporary slowdown.
And if traffic’s a mess, Maps offers alternative
routes to save you time.

12. Flyover
See major metro areas from the air
with photo‐realistic, interactive 3D
views. Explore cities in high resolution
as you zoom, pan, tilt, and rotate
around the city and its landmarks.

13. Siri
No matter where you roam, Siri can help you find
your way.2 To get to your destination, ask Siri to
take you there and Maps immediately guides you
along the fastest route. And if you feel peckish on
the way, ask Siri to look for the closest hamburger
joint or diner.

14. Local Search
Tap a pin you’ve placed on the map or a search result
to see a card full of useful information about that
location. View photos, tap to dial phone numbers, get
an address, find websites, peruse Yelp ratings and
reviews — even find deals to save you money. Tap the
Quick Route button and Maps instantly gives you turn‐
by‐turn directions to any search result.

19. Ask Siri about sports scores and stats,
where to eat, what movies to see — even
ask to make Facebook posts. Siri
understands more languages and works
in more countries. So you can get more
things done in more places around the
world. And most exciting of all, with Siri
on the new iPad, on more devices, too.

20. Sports
Sports fan? Siri knows baseball, basketball,
football, soccer, and hockey. Ask Siri for game
schedules, scores from the current season’s
games, or up‐to‐the minute scores from live
games. Tell Siri to show you player stats and
compare them against other players’ stats. Siri
tracks team records, too, so you’ll always know
how well your team is doing (or not doing).

21. Movies
Siri can help you find the latest flicks by location
or showtimes. Can’t decide? Ask Siri to show you
a movie trailer or a Rotten Tomatoes review. Siri
is also quite the film buff: Find out when a film
premiered, who directed it, and what awards it
won. Or ask Siri which movies your favorite
actors star in, so you won’t miss any of their past
or future blockbusters.

22. Restaurants
With Siri you now have a personal restaurant
concierge. Ask to find restaurants by cuisine,
price, location, outdoor seating, or a
combination of choices. Siri will show you a
restaurant’s photos, Yelp stars, price range,
and reviews. When you find a place you like, ask
Siri to make a reservation through the
OpenTable app.

23. Facebook and Twitter
Siri makes social networking that much more
fun — and easy. Update your Facebook
status, post a comment on your Wall, or send
a tweet using just the sound of your voice.
You can get the word out faster — all without
having to type a single word.

24. App Launching
With iOS 6, you can ask Siri to open apps for you.
If you arrive early at the cafe Siri helped you find,
just ask to play Angry Birds so you can kill time
while you wait. Or ask Siri to launch Facebook
and see what your friends are up to, or take a
look at the latest posts on your Wall.

25. Eyes Free
Apple is working with car manufacturers to
integrate Siri into select voice control systems.
Through the voice command button on your
steering wheel, you’ll be able to ask Siri
questions without taking your eyes off the road.
To minimize distractions even more, your iOS
device’s screen won’t light up. With the Eyes Free
feature, ask Siri to call people, select and play
music, hear and compose text messages, use
Maps and get directions, read your notifications,
find calendar information, add reminders, and
more. It’s just another way Siri helps you get
things done, even when you’re behind the wheel.
