You could give an iOS user a current Android phone that has an iOS-like launch screen and an Apple logo on the back and tell them it's the new iPhone with a whole bunch of new features.
I mean, why don't we just do this anyway? iPhone is obsolete at this point.
This isn’t an iOS thing, it’s an Apple Maps thing. You could do this with Google maps on iOS to just fine. Google maps was the only map app that had downloadable maps up to this point that I know of, not even Waze - Google’s neglected step child - has it.
All map apps have had this for ages. Here, Magic, the OSM ones, etc. Apple is the outlier here.
