Apple Quietly Unveils MAJOR Updates for US Maps

Loopinsight.com reports today that aside from the publicly announced updates that Apple Maps made for Japan this week, they quietly have been adding flyover support for a SLEW of US cities, along with expanded flyover coverage, new satellite photos and more information. For those that quickly switched back to Google Maps, it might now be time to give it another look.

With Maps, you get real-time traffic information to calculate your ETA. Maps gives you details on what's causing a backup, so you can tell if there's a major incident or just a temporary slowdown. And if traffic's a mess, Maps offers alternative routes to save you time.
