Apple Maps

The new feature in Apple Maps that lets users reports accidents and hazards is now available to users in both Germany and Spain, 9to5 Mac said. The feature is rolling out in various countries around the world and was already available in Australia, Brazil, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the U.S. It’s nice to see the app developing like this, having lagged behind its rival from Google for a number of years.

Germany is the latest country to add support for reporting incidents using Apple Maps. This feature launched alongside iOS 14.5 and is slowly expanding globally. As spotted by Macerkopf, with this feature now live in Germany, users can report an accident and danger zones on a new menu of the app. Unfortunately, as spotted by a Reddit user, it’s not possible to use the speed check option, which is available in other countries.

A major update to Apple Maps is being rolled out in Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, and Andorra. It includes a host of new data and features users in other countries have enjoyed for a while, MacStories reported.

In one update, the entire region is gaining features that were released elsewhere over the past two years, including: Look Around, More detailed road coverage, pedestrian data, and land cover, Improved navigation, 3D buildings. Siri Natural Language Guidance. Speed camera data. Lane guidance, and more… When iOS 15 is released, transit stations in Italy will be easier to find, and riders will be able to pin their favorite transit lines in Maps and track when they should disembark on an iPhone or Apple Watch. Drivers will gain the ability to report accidents, hazards, and speed checks using Siri too.
