Apple Maps rolls out ‘Look Around’ feature for web

Apple is adding a Google Street View-like feature called “Look Around” to Apple Maps’ web version. ‘Look Around’ will be rolled out to several countries globally including the U.S., Canada, Australia, the UK, portions of the European Union. Earlier this year, Apple had launched Apple Maps on the web as a part of a public beta with some limited features like directions and curated guides. But there are plans to integrate other updates including transit maps that will give real-time information on buses, trains and other modes of transport, a feature that Google Maps already has.
