There are only a few days left until the start of the thirty-third edition of the Olympic Games. This Friday will be the start of the Paris 2024 Games and this has been the best excuse for Apple to update Apple Maps, the native iPhone app with which to travel almost anywhere in the world.
And visiting a city in the middle of the Olympics is something that not everyone can afford, whether for work, distance or money reasons. Therefore, adapting applications like Apple’s is always the most interesting and if you don’t know any historic city like ParisIt’s a good time to grab your iPhone and “visit” it.
Apple Maps draws the most emblematic sites of Paris
Among the recent improvements of Apple Maps is the possibility of seeing emblematic places in 3D, although it is not something that has reached all cities or all monuments. Yes, it has happened these days with Paris, adding a construction of several historical sites from the city.
Take for example the Olympic Aquatic Center in Paris, which will be of enormous importance in these Olympic Games, or other historic sites in the city such as the Place de la Madeleine or the Gare de Paris Est. Iconic sites that previously could not be seen in three dimensions with Apple Maps, but which are now available in the iPhone application, but also in the Mac and iPad application.
THE steps to see them They couldn’t be simpler. You just search for the location in the app’s search engine and then make sure 3D vision is enabled. Then, using your fingers, you can rotate or zoom to see the buildings from all sides.
The App Store will also host Olympic stories
In addition to deliberately updating its Maps app, Apple is also aiming to bring interesting stories to its App Store. As reported in MacRumors, The App Store will dedicate spaces to related stories with the sporting event.
This will likely be through the “Today” tab, where we often see various apps highlighted, sometimes with interviews or statements from users or developers.
It is not yet clear what exactly this will bring in relation to Paris, but they are surely great stories related to Olympic sports. For example, an application that helped an athlete get to Paris or a developer who implemented something new and closely related to this field.
