Mapper for Safari

It sometimes works, but often enough it either just opens Apple Maps with a search results screen instead of the actual location, or worse, sends you to a completely different place. I only learned that it doesn’t use coordinates when reading the FAQ on the app itself. So who knows how it determines the location. As an example, I’m currently in Hong Kong for work. One Google Maps link for a local restaurant opened in Apple Maps to a Car Park in Japan?!? And another one opened to a search results page with a few options and non of them were the right place. My guess is that it only works if the location exists exactly the same in both Google Maps and Apple Maps.

It’s great and it just works. Thanks.

This was not disclosed in the description. I can’t uninstall Google Maps since I need it for my job.

It works. Nothing more nothing less. Thanks!

In a world where linking to Google Maps is the default, Mapper is a must-have extension for those that prefer Apple Maps. Mapper works consistently on my iPhone to open Apple Maps, which provides a much better experience than Google Maps. It does fail with 5% of links that are edge cases: certain coordinates or Google-proprietary Plus Codes for example. Excited to continue using this on iPad and Mac now that “Apple Maps on the web” is in beta.

Don’t be like me and spend the two dollars thinking this is a great deal. It seems like a great deal but it’s really not doesn’t work. It just takes you to Google maps and ask you to open Google maps so much worthless books.

Very

This extension JUST works! It does exactly as it says, there’s nothing more and nothing less. Great solution for fixing something that is a small but major inconvenience in (iOS-Google/google maps web api) when viewing any native google web api and just want to quickly have any place you were looking open natively in Apple Maps. Saves me the frustration and 15 seconds of having to go back and copy the address and then open the Apple maps app and paste the address I was viewing just to get directions. Not one too normally leave reviews but just wanted to let others know how it is worth every penny and 10x more. I’d give it an 11/10 stars if I could.

Heard about this on Mac Power Users and went and downloaded it before they could finish describing it. This google maps thing has always driven me crazy. So this is so nice. I’ve been typing in addresses just to try it for like 3 minutes now. Lol. Thank you! Such a great extension
