About Maps

Maps gives you quick access to maps all across the world. We use the collaborative OpenStreetMap database, enabling our users to make smaller changes to places and points-of-interests (read more about How it started).

The map tiles as provided to us by OpenStreetMap and are shown using libShumate (previously using libChamplain).

Route planning

Plan your trip or check where that friend lives. We are able to do this thanks to the open source GraphHopper service.
For some regions we support trip planning for public transit.

If your privacy settings allows, Maps will use the GeoClue service to find your location.
