Apple Maps in iOS 27 makes my favorite recent feature even better
Here’s how. iOS 27 improves Apple Maps’ new ‘Suggested Places’ feature by adding a lot more recommendations When iOS 26.5 launched in May, it came with a pair of Apple Maps-focused changes, including ‘Suggested Places.’ The feature offers recommendations inside Maps’ search screen of places you should check out. Suggested Places bases its recommendations on what’s trending as well as your recent searches.
