Here's what you should know about the feature.
What is Apple Maps Look Around?
The Look Around feature on Apple Maps is similar to street view on Google Maps. You can use it to see specific locations from the street level, with a view in all directions.
It's available for devices running iOS 13 or newer, and macOS 10.15 Catalina or newer.
