Look Around Update 2026 Imagery: Tokyo
Yesterday, I accidentally discovered that Apple Maps has been updated with 2026 imagery.
I was just driving around doing some car spotting.
About Apple maps app and look around, I'd like to mention that there is a difference between those two.
Look Around allows you to search for specific update dates, whereas the Apple Maps app only shows you the streets that are already highlighted in blue.
You can't see the updates in the Apple Maps app. Even on Look Around, it wasn't visible at the time I discovered the update. However, I found out that you can click on the gray streets even if the blue lines aren't showing, which still allows you to access the updated streets
The blue-highlighted streets only become visible when zooming in completely.
I am aware that Benni, who by the way, does excellent work tracking all these updates uses a different website. However, I personally prefer to research and discover these updates myself using Lookmap.
Furthermore, I will leave it to Benni to post the other updates, which include parts of Singapore.
