Sounds awesome, is there a video of it I could watch somewhere?

Edit: for those who didn't know, like me, apple's maps are available at https://maps.apple.com. You can see this yourself. The effect is unvelievably smooth compared to what Google maps have

Oh cool, I didn't know they added their Street View equivalent to the web version. The animated transitions are much better than Google's.

It does look smooth but for me the killer feature on google maps is still the ability to go back in time.

They seem to be significantly slower though

It's very cool but I don't understand why they've decided to basically not do it in the US and UK.

Meanwhile they have nearly full coverage of the rest of western Europe, plus a huge amount of Canada and Mexico.

This was launched in 2019. A few years ago I remember speculating that they were holding it back with the cool 3D effects to do a big push alongside Vision Pro, but that's come and gone with no significant change to Look Around.

California isn't doing bad, but outside of that they're averaging about 0.5 locations per state.

They haven't been to Nashville but they sent someone to drive to Rainbow Lake, Alberta? What gives?

Does it appear only if you visit the website on mobile? I don't see any street view option when I visit that site on a PC.

You have to zoom in the map and click on the binoculars in the bottom left corner!

I believe so, I can't test now but I don't see it on desktop either.

Oh that’s right, I always forget they have it on the web.
