Apple has launched a web version of its Maps app, which is now available to Android phone users via their mobile web browser.
While it is still in beta and lacks some of the features of the native iOS app, Android users can now search for places, get directions and avoid tolls or highways, among other things.
To access the service, users simply need to visit maps.apple.com, with the page thought to still be in testing despite the removal of the beta tag, hence the lack of certain features.
The move comes ahead of Apple’s plan to let users set Google Maps as their default navigation option on iPhones and iPads.
