## What is iMaps+ for Google Maps?

iMaps+ brings Google maps, directions and street view to your iOS device.

Features:

- Search by address or textual query (eg 'London, UK' or 'Restaurants in New York'). In addition, you can 'radar search' the visible map area to locate places of interest such as restaurants, pubs, ATMs and more.
- Just tap on any of the places of interest on the map for more details, or to access street view.
- Street view can also be accessed from a dropped pin, search result or bookmarked location. Alternatively, drag the peg-man from the top left of the screen as on Google Maps on a desktop.
- Book hotels via our partnerships with Booking.com, Hotels.com and Agoda.com
- Map details are cached once viewed, browse them again even when you don't have an internet connection - perfect for travelling!
- Get step by step driving, cycling, walking and public transport directions. Choose to avoid highways or tolls and select from a number of alternative routes. For public transport, you also have the option of setting an arrival/departure time.
- Set up notifications to fire when you arrive at a specific location.
- Record journeys such as a hike, bike ride or road trip, even while the app is in the background. Recorded routes are saved and can be recalled at any time. (IAP)
- Swipe up and down with two fingers to tilt the map and access 3D views in main cities around the world.
- Map overlays including live traffic, public transport lines and indoor maps.
- Use addresses from your iPhone contacts for search and directions.
- Press and hold to drop a pin anywhere on the map.
- Bookmark important locations for quick access.
- Directions and search in English, French, Portuguese, Italian, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Russian, Korean, Hindi and more.

### 2/5 — Not a good app

*2026-07-08*

I’ve had this app for several years. About three years ago the search bar field went black and you can’t see where you’re typing. I sent several messages to the developer, but no response.. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall sense, but it will not work on my iPad at all anymore and you still can’t see what you were typing in the search bar. No support whatsoever if these problems were fixed it would be an awesome app and it has been an past. Don’t waste your money on this application until someone wakes up and fixes the glitches.

### 1/5 — iMaps doesn’t work

*2025-06-11, version 5.0.7*

Since the V18 iOS updates on iPhones my version of the app has lost its search functionality and becomes unstable  when you try to search.  There appears to be no updates of bug fixes since 2007? A years wasted subscription hoping for a fix and still it doesn’t work.  Will cancel it now before it renews again.
