Apple Maps in iOS 27 gets upgraded Flyover feature and Local Lists, plus other improvements. Apple Maps doesn’t look drastically different when you open it in iOS 27. But Apple has a variety of big and small improvements in its latest update.

One tentpole feature is an upgraded Flyover experience. Per Apple: Apple Maps brings an enhanced Flyover experience, which combines aerial imagery with AI to enable users to view imagery in stunning detail for select cities around the world like never before. Whether scouting a location before a trip or simply exploring a city from a new perspective, the enhanced experience gives users a sharper and more lifelike glimpse into destinations across the globe.

Apple also highlights a new Local Lists feature that’s available in the US: With Local Lists, Apple Maps users in the U.S. can find the perfect spot for meeting friends, dining, and more. Using intelligent insights from what’s trending, Maps surfaces locally relevant collections of places — from trending restaurants to great spots to take kids — so it’s easy for users to find what they are looking for. All insights are derived with privacy in mind and never tied to individual users.
