Apple’s Flyover feature in iOS 6’s new Maps app gives users a really cool way to explore their favorite cities. 3D renderings of major metropolitan areas let you zoom in and out to view buildings in greater detail — kind of like you’re really there.
Right now, there are a limited number of cities that Apple has created 3D renders of (but more are on the way). Here’s a look at all the cities currently supporting Flyover in the new Maps app.
Apple Maps Flyover cities
Instead of relying on Google Maps, Apple plans to roll out its own mapping app when iOS 6 arrives this fall. Flyover is one of the features that should make Apple Maps more fun and useful than competitors.
The following cities get the Flyover treatment in the latest iOS 6 beta.
Apple HQ in Cupertino
Chicago
Copenhagen
Las Vegas
Los Angeles
Miami
Montreal
Sacramento
San Francisco
Seattle
Sydney
The current number of cities Apple Maps renders in 3D is pretty paltry. We’re hoping the company adds a lot more before iOS 6 launches, presumably in September.
Is there a city we’re missing in the gallery? Let us know in the comments and we’ll add it to the gallery.
