The first release: a map of dog-friendly places, with guides, reviews and turn-by-turn directions.
Added
A map of dog-friendly places: cafés, restaurants, bars, dog parks, parks and nature, beaches, shops, places to stay and vets, each with its own pin.
Quick filters for open now, dogs allowed inside, water bowl and off-leash, plus a filter per category, with one tap to reset them.
Address and place search, and a button that shows where you are.
A place card on the map and a page for every place: address, opening hours, what to know with your dog (inside, leash, water), photos and reviews.
Directions inside maps.dog by car, on foot, by public transport or by bike, with up to three routes to choose from and the travel time on each.
Turn-by-turn navigation: the next turn in a banner, spoken directions that can be muted, a new route when you leave the planned one, and a dog on the map that turns the way you face when you walk.
Public transport connections with lines, directions, platforms, departure times and every stop on the way.
Open any route in Apple Maps or Google Maps instead.
Reviews with paws, and facts about each place that dog owners confirm.
Add a place, add photos, and report a problem with a place. New places and photos are checked before they go live.
