Open Google Maps links from Safari in Apple Maps. No copy/paste. No tracking. Featured by Apple in The Best Safari Extensions.
Mapper opens Google Maps links, directions, addresses, and map thumbnails from Safari directly in Apple Maps, so you can stop copying and pasting addresses.
Key features:
- Redirect Google Maps links, addresses, direction buttons, and map thumbnails directly to Apple Maps.
- Support every Google domain (google.com, .co.uk, .ca, etc.) on iOS and macOS.
- Smart fallbacks: if Mapper can’t resolve a link, you’ll land on the Google Maps web app and then automatically redirect to Apple Maps.
- Zero data collection: Mapper only scans for map links on Google search pages and never stores personal or location data.
How it works:
- Install Mapper and enable the extension in Settings → Safari → Extensions.
- Browse to Google in Safari.
- Tap any map link, directions button, or thumbnail.
- Mapper grabs the address or search term and opens Apple Maps with a single tap.
Mapper is built and maintained by a solo indie developer, ensuring it stays lightweight, reliable, and up-to-date. If you love Mapper, please consider leaving a rating or review. For questions or feedback, tap the Contact link within the Mapper app.
This app works really well with location links included by Google in search results. It's a bit buggy when opening links embedded on websites by their creators. Really worth installing if you like Google search and Apple maps.
Great way to fully take advantage of Garmin Truck Nav

I was unable to send pinned locations from google maps to my Garmin Satnav. This is a great app because Apple Maps allows me to send pinned locations to my Garmin. With this app I’m able to use Apple Maps as seamlessly as if it was google maps. It works exactly like Google Maps by redirecting functionality to Apple Maps.
Seamless

This is a must have app. I don’t do any safari extensions but I absolutely made an exception for this one. Not 30 minutes after reading the published AppleInsider review it was already bought and installed. Tested out and worked as if it was built into iOS. Amazing. Would highly recommend.
5 star because it works so well.

I use apple maps for everything and browsing for thing often gives a Google map result. Now I can click and go straight to apple maps. So so simple. But amazing!
