One of the best things about the iPhone is the amazing range of apps that come bundled with its operating system, iOS 15. You can send and receive emails with Mail, surf the web with Safari, find your way around with Maps, and more. Several apps get some great new features in iOS 15. Look out for hashtags in Notes and Reminders, some awesome new FaceTime features and a great way of using Maps to find your way around.

A third tap returns it to its default function. 3 The blue dot shows your current location on the map and the direction you're facing. The smaller the blue circle around it, the more accurate the location is. Use the search bar found here to look for a location or nearby feature; we looked for Fast Food.

Go to Settings > Maps and turn on Air Quality Index and this is then shown here too. Deep press on this data for a window showing more weather information, drawn from the Weather app. The ‘X’ icon collapses the bottom window panel, giving you a better look at the main map screen; or you can simply swipe it down. Use these buttons to filter and fine-tune your search, for example, restricting a search to specific fast food outlets, and changing how they’re sorted. We're looking for fast food, so nearby burger and pizza places are shown here. The list offers information on the establishments shown on the map. Tap one, on the panel here or on the map for more details. A word of warning. Like any sat-nav, Maps is not infallible. It's up to you to make sure you follow road signs and the road laws. By all means follow the Maps app but don’t neglect your basic road skills. Using route planning and navigation Birmingham. $ é ° .

You’re instructed when to get on a train, where to go from the station when you get off, which bus to catch and more. Buildings such as subway stations have been carefully surveyed, so Maps shows not only their location but also all the entrances and exits to that station. It can even show maps of their indoor areas and features as well. Cycling and Electric Cars. Two features that are gradually being rolled out in Maps, but aren't yet available in all territories, are travelling by bicycle and driving an electric car. For cyclists, choosing a bike as your mode of transport gives you route planning that takes account of dedicated cycle paths and road elevations. If there’s a dedicated cycling route available, your route plan will take you down it as an alternative to using the road. And you're warned about big hills too, so there are no nasty surprises on the way. Yarra St Vicomte st From Mission Dolores Park a &« fF dd 36 min 6.8 mi- 300 ft climb ne 000000 t.. Go @ shared roads and protected lanes For those who drive an electric car, the route planning features are largely the same as they are for petrol cars, but for fuel stops you're shown recharging stations along your journey instead of petrol stations. Unfortunately, both of these features are limited to certain locations and journeys at the moment, but they'll roll out in other territories with time. Henry W.
