Globe view from maps gone?

[IcyFlame]

Hi, everyone! It used to be that in Maps when you zoom out completely, you can view the globe. It seems like that doesn't work anymore. Do you know if it was removed or it's a bug? Thanks.

I don't recall Maps ever doing that.

It looked like this. And you could spin it too.

I thought you were asking about iOS. I still have Mojave on my Mac and it doesn't zoom out to the globe. What version of macOS is that? (Remember that before Apple rolled out their own maps, they used Google maps as their provider. That's probably what you've got there.)

Try selecting satellite first and then zoom out, maybe it will work this way. I think Mojave and High Sierra had this.

And click 3D otherwise the Earth will still be flat!

I just tried this. Zoom in enough in Satellite mode that you can select 3D mode. Then just start zooming out, and you'll get the globe view when you zoom out sufficiently.
