Satellite, Apple Maps & Google Maps – iPhone Route Planner App

Satellite maps provide realistic and extremely detailed satellite images of various locations on the map. For example, you can use the satellite map view to check how a specific location looks in real life, get a more realistic overview of a particular area, etc. For this reason, Route4Me’s iOS Route Planner enables you to navigate and view your planned routes and route destinations using the in-app satellite maps.

Additionally, you can send Route4Me route destinations to such third-party navigation apps as Apple Maps, Waze App, Google Maps, and even Uber. Thus, you can view your Route4Me routes in Google Maps satellite view, Apple Maps satellite view, and other mapping apps.
