Apple Maps brings 3D and enhanced navigation to Phoenix

The big picture: Phoenix is the newest metro area added to Apple Maps' Detailed City Experience, which launched in the Valley last week.

Zoom in: Detailed City Experience shows more than just streets and locations — you can see lane markings, bike lanes, turn arrows, crosswalks and even the reversible lanes on Seventh Avenue and Seventh Street.

• The road-level 3D view shows the best lane to be in for your exit.
• Apple Maps shows key landmarks in 3D, such as Burton Barr Central Library, Chase Field, Desert Diamond Arena, ASU Gammage, the Heard Museum, Mortgage Matchup Center, Orpheum Theater, Pizzeria Bianco and Rustler's Rooste.
• Some landmarks can be shown in both light and dark modes, including Tovrea Castle, State Farm Stadium and Phoenix Art Museum.

What we're watching: With major events coming up next year like the NBA All-Star Weekend and the WM Phoenix Open, the Detailed City Experience could help the throngs of visitors more easily navigate the Valley.

Catch up quick: Apple Maps launched Detailed City Experience in 2021, touting richer details, better navigation, immersive walking directions shown in augmented reality and more.

Jeremy's thought bubble: If only the maps showed you where the speed enforcement cameras were.
