Patent number: 10514270Abstract: A method of providing a sequence of turn-by-turn navigation instructions on a device traversing a route is provided. Each turn-by-turn navigation instruction is associated with a location on the route. As the device traverses along the route, the method displays a turn-by-turn navigation instruction associated with a current location of the device. The method receives a touch input through a touch input interface of the device while displaying a first turn-by-turn navigation instruction and a first map region that displays the current location and a first location associated with the first turn-by-turn navigation instruction. In response to receiving the touch input, the method displays a second turn-by-turn navigation instruction and a second map region that displays a second location associated with the second turn-by-turn navigation instruction. Without receiving additional input, the method automatically returns to the display of the first turn-by-turn navigation instruction and the first map region.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2019Date of Patent: December 24, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Christine B. McGavran, Bradford A. Moore, Christopher D. Moore, Harold O. Habeck, Marcel van Os

Patent number: 10323701Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a navigation application that presents road signs during a navigation presentation. In presenting the road signs, the application of some embodiments differentiates the appearance of road signs at junctions that require a change of direction from road signs at junctions that do not require a change of direction. The application may perform processes that ensure that it arranges the road signs on the map in an aesthetically pleasing manner. In addition, the navigation application of some embodiments does not display too many road signs along the navigated route so that the route is not by occluded by too many road signs.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2018Date of Patent: June 18, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Stephen O. Lemay, Seejo K. Pylappan, Marcel Van Os, Harold O. Habeck

Patent number: 9823077Abstract: A method for providing navigation instructions on a device is described. As the device traverses a navigated route according to a first mode of transportation, the method displays a first turn-by-turn navigation presentation defined for the first mode. Based on data gathered by the device, the method determines that the device is navigating the route according to a second mode of transportation. The method automatically displays a second, different turn-by-turn navigation presentation defined for the second mode.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2015Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Christine B. McGavran, Bradford A. Moore, Christopher D. Moore, Harold O. Habeck, Marcel van Os, Wesley Yue, Eric L. Grundstrom
