Common questions

Short answers, no hype.

Why don’t Apple Maps links just work on Android?

They are made for iPhone. On Android they don’t open cleanly for navigation. Maps Bridge reads the location and opens that same place in Google Maps.

Do I need internet?

Only for short links like maps.apple/p/…, which need a quick check with Apple to expand. Full links convert on your phone.

Is my location sent to you?

No. There are no servers or accounts. Everything stays on your device, except expanding short links. See our Privacy Policy.

Is this made by Apple or Google?

No. Maps Bridge is independent. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Apple or Google.

Link didn’t work?

Check it starts with maps.apple.com or maps.apple/p/. Then try pasting it directly. If it still fails, contact us on the Support page.
