Publication number: 20210247202Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can provide a map application providing a representation of a physical structure of venues (e.g., shopping centers, airports) identified by the application. In addition, the application can provide an inside view that includes the physical layout and geometry of the venue's structure as well as the location, structure and layout of points of interest (e.g., stores, security check points, restrooms) within the venue. The views become more detailed as the user zooms into the venue to reveal points of interest and to give the user a feel for traversing the venue.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2021Publication date: August 12, 2021Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Ryan D. Shelby, Ryan W. Apuy, Vincent P. Arroyo, Sunny Chan, Jae Woo Chang, Megan M. Frost, Brett L. Lareau, Sean P. O'Brien, Tadayasu Sasada, Sebastian A. Araya

Patent number: 10863318Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for displaying a map. The method provides a first display area to display a map, and a second display area to overlap a portion of the first display area to display (i) a field to receive a search parameter and (ii) a set of predicted locations to view on the map. The second display area is moveable over the first display area in order to decrease its size to allow a larger portion of the map to be displayed in the first display area, or to increase its size to allow a larger number of predicted locations to be displayed in the second display area. In some embodiments, the second display area overlaps a bottom portion of the first display area. In some embodiments, the method is implemented by a map application that executes on a mobile device. The set of predicted locations displayed in the second display area in some embodiments include addresses harvested from applications executing on the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2019Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Jae Woo Chang, Brett L. Lareau, Ryan D. Shelby

Publication number: 20200340822Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can provide a map application providing a representation of a physical structure of venues (e.g., shopping centers, airports) identified by the application. The application can provide an inside view of the venue, which is accessible by other applications and programs on the user's device. Thus, whether intended or not, search results that are identified by the map application as having an inside view of the venue are also presented on a graphical user interface along with typical search results from the other applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2020Publication date: October 29, 2020Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Ryan D. Shelby, Megan M. Frost, Jae Woo Chang, Brett L. Lareau, Ryan W. Apuy, Sean P. O'Brien, YunJae Kim
