LOL Considering recent events, your post hasn't improved much in my view.
Well...that map pic isn't NJ/NY. I want to put my money toward a house/land, not taxes!
Better weather, near the ocean, near (but not too close) to I-95 so it's easy to visit/have visits from family, near a "major" airport for work....and maybe access to high-speed internet should be on there as well, hah!
Btw…I figured out the whole “Apple Maps sucks, Google is way better” thing that people always comment on in any Maps threads on here. Hope to have my first video available soon.
Annnnnd….already leaving. Just a day trip. Back on Monday.
Updated NYC maps, please!!!!
Reddit is showing the Apple Newsroom in Italy says new Italy, Vatican City and Andorra maps are released.
Nothing in the USA newsroom though about it and I still have no access.
On another note from my post above, seems like incident reporting went live in Australia, Brazil and the UK over the past two days. I wonder if my hazard reporting view means it has finally been “released to view” here as well after 6 months of reporting/testing??

Italy finally showed up on my iPad and iPhone.
And they fixed the Leaning Tower of Pisa….it wasn’t “leaning” in the initial release…hah!

Cycling directions added to Toronto and Vancouver yesterday.
Ok...so we have now seen full (or close to full) Look Around releases in Canada, Spain, and most recently Italy.
I reeeeeeaaaallllly hope we see a wide rollout for the US with iOS 15's official release. And also expanded cycling directions (ya know...now that us northerners aren't too far off from bike UNfriendly weather?)
EDIT to add: Also, if you take a look around major cities, you can kind of get an idea of how many buildings are going to...or may...get the super detail when the "new city experience" comes to that city. I was looking around Chicago yesterday and even though it's not on the "coming soon" list, there's definitely some notable standouts that, unless my eyes are messing with me, seem more detailed than they used to be.

I've not seen it here in the UK before, I've driven in to work this morning with my phone plugged in (iOS 14.7.1) and didnt have the option.
Nope, there is a chance its not even on the latest version of iOS14. She didnt even notice she had the option, i was driving and noticed the icons looked different down the side and saw the report hazard option.
That’s why I said US…I forget where everyone is from. Hah.
UK just got it last week, but should work on both 14 and 15 since it is still part of the 14 release. But maybe it is in limited testing right now? Not sure why though.
You don’t see it on the phone nor in CarPlay?
Well…now I’m not sure of anything anymore.
While I had never seen it before, looks like there are government issued “hazards” as well.
Guess I’m still waiting to see a speed trap before I’m convinced that user submitted reports are seen by other users.

Only spotted in on her phone in CarPlay to date, not actually look on the phone as such.
Just had a play on the phone and i can see it on mine if you bring the bar up from the bottom. Need to pop out shortly so will see if CarPlay is now working. Definitely didnt have an icon on screen like she did yesterday.
Kewl…they changed the way it is shown during the beta this past Spring.
It is only on the screen while NOT routing as it does let you report then too.
While routing, you have to bring up the routing menus to report, or use Siri.
Same for CarPlay
I'll double check shortly when i pop out but i'm sure on CarPlay the icon to do it was visible in the same place whether i was routing or not.
On my actual phone i cannot see an icon for it at all whilst not routing anywhere. Once you start a route as you say you can bring up the menu from the bottom to report something.

Sorry…you are correct about it not being on the phone screen, but in iOS15, you can swipe up on the bottom menu and press “Report An Issue.” This brings up another menu that let’s you report an incident even when not routing.
In CarPlay, it shows up on the screen when not routing (you may have to touch the screen for it to come up), and then moves to the routing menu once in a route.
