Smartphone users across the country will now get turn-by-turn directions from Apple Maps while walking or driving, the tech giant announced on Tuesday.
In the next several days, customers in the country will also be able to locate a store while shopping or navigate an airport, with the use of their Apple gadget.
Apple said the turn-by-turn direction is available to users of iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch starting on Tuesday. It can be used in the car with CarPlay, to allow users to navigate and find their destinations across the country.
The app’s turn-by-turn directions come with full Arabic language support, guiding users while behind the wheel or on foot.
In addition, Apple said the Maps has added Indoor Maps for Dubai International Airport, Festival City Mall and The Dubai Mall, one of the world’s largest shopping destinations, giving users a way to explore these locations before even arriving.
“These new Maps features will become available for users over the next several days,” Apple said.
