Questions

How do I convert an Apple Maps link to Google Maps?

Paste it above. Apple links are detected and turned into Google Maps links.

Why do Google Maps links open in Safari on my iPhone?

iOS sends google.com/maps links to Google Maps or the browser. A maps.apple.com link opens Apple Maps.

Can it open maps.app.goo.gl short links?

Yes. The iPhone shortcut opens them directly; on this page, paste one and follow the three steps.

Do I need an app, an account or an API key?

No. It's free, with nothing to sign up for.

Is my link sent anywhere?

No. Links are converted in your browser. Only the map preview loads from OpenStreetMap.

Can I use it from my own app or shortcut?

Yes. Open this page with ?url=<link>&go=1, or use the npm library.
