Apple has quietly removed one of the features in the Maps navigation app. The feature is an automatic city tour that shows the city in 3D from the air.
This feature was first introduced in 2014. For almost a decade, this feature has continued to be developed so that users can access 3D views of hundreds of cities in various parts of the world.
In 2019, this feature was known to be able to display 350 cities in the form of 3D imaging. Several cities in Europe such as Lucerne and Stavanger were added to the list of features.
This feature is part of the 3D Flyover mode. Users can see the view of landmarks from major cities in various parts of the world. This feature is useful when users want to see the view of a city with automatic 3D movement.
Unfortunately, the notes from Apple's latest operating system (OS) have removed information about the feature. Users can now only explore 3D maps manually without the help of its automatic navigation.
It's unclear why Apple decided to remove the feature. However, some users suspect that the feature is less popular or used by users so that Apple quietly removed the feature since iOS 26.
Actually, this feature is very interesting for users who want to visit a place, but want to see the appearance of it first virtually. In the old version, users can even cross the Buckingham Palace to Big Ben in London in 3D view.
