Apple Maps will finally let you manually refresh your search as you pan around to find similar destinations in adjacent (or distant) areas. In the iOS 18 beta<\/a>, Apple Maps displays a new \u201csearch here\u201d button after you search for things like coffee shops or restaurants and then shift the map to a new area.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In the current version, Apple Maps intermittently updates the search area as you pan around, which can get frustrating when I\u2019m attempting to invoke (or avoid) a refresh. As reported by MacRumors<\/em><\/a>, Apple Maps still auto-refreshes as you move around, but at least you no longer need to cancel your search or frantically zoom in and out, hoping for a response without direct control.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The \u201csearch here\u201d button in Apple Maps is similar to the \u201csearch this area\u201d button that Google Maps has had for a long time. It\u2019s one of the reasons I personally jump over to the latter app when looking for coffee shops and retro game stores in new cities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
