When Apple first launched cycling directions on Apple Maps, the feature was limited to a handful of cities like New York and Beijing. Since then, Apple has gradually expanded coverage. Now, cycling directions are also available in Hong Kong and Taiwan.<\/p>\n
If you ride a bike to get around where you live, you know that some information is essential for route planning: are there bike paths? Bike lanes? Do they cover the entire route? What is the elevation along the way?<\/p>\n
Since the limited rollout in 2020, Apple has expanded cycling directions on Apple Maps to cities around the world, including bike-friendly countries and regions like the Netherlands<\/a>.<\/p>\n Now, the setting is beginning to roll out in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It offers the usual options to avoid hills and busy roads, along with routes optimized for cycling, prioritizing bike-friendly paths that differ from walking or driving directions.<\/p>\n Interestingly, Apple hasn\u2019t yet added Hong Kong and Taiwan to its official list<\/a> of regions with cycling directions. As of now, the company\u2019s website lists the following supported areas:<\/p>\n Australia<\/p>\n Austria<\/p>\n Belgium<\/p>\n Canada<\/p>\n China mainland<\/p>\n Denmark<\/p>\n Finland<\/p>\n France<\/p>\n Germany<\/p>\n Greece<\/p>\n Ireland<\/p>\n Italy<\/p>\n Japan<\/p>\n Monaco<\/p>\n Netherlands<\/p>\n New Zealand<\/p>\n Norway<\/p>\n Portugal<\/p>\n San Marino<\/p>\n Singapore<\/p>\n Spain<\/p>\n Sweden<\/p>\n Switzerland<\/p>\n Thailand<\/p>\n United Kingdom<\/p>\n United States<\/p>\n Vatican City<\/p>\n We\u2019ll keep an eye out for any updates to see if Apple adds more regions beyond Taiwan and Hong Kong in the coming days.<\/p>\n Do you use cycling directions in Apple Maps?
