Apple Maps has enabled the Nearby feature in India to let users find nearby establishments including food delivery, groceries, medical shops, petrol pumps, and restaurants, among others. Alongside the new change for Indian users, Apple has also expanded real-time transit information on its Maps app across Canada, Sweden, and the Netherlands. The real-time transit feature that was enabled initially in some US cities to provide live departure times, arrival times, and the current location of public transportation has also reached many new cities in the country.
With the arrival of the Nearby feature on Apple Maps in India, you can now easily look at places such as your nearby food delivery centre, grocery shops, hospitals, medical shops, petrol pumps, restaurants, and shopping malls. All you need to do is tap the search field on the Apple Maps app to start searching for your nearby attractions.
