Step 1.

Apple map catch this new opened business named Julya's fashion, while google missed it, as Sep 2025. 

Orange box is income tax is closed business, phone number is on longer answer, while google stills shows it open. 

Google will catch this new bussiness later for sure, but 911 dataset want to get latest at all time. For this area, Apple POI somehow beat google

Step 2.

Apple map used to be worest map in past 10 years. Not sure how Apple map suddenly catch up at least in some area.

Same area, google missed Julya's fashion, income tax is no longer open.

Step 3.

apple street view also shows new open business Julya's fashion

this is iphone apple map screen, this is true on Aug 2025.

 

 

 

 

Step 4.

google map missed this new open business Julya's fashion.

This is iphone google map, street view, obviously is out of date compare to apple street view above. 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 5.

Here map does not have street view, worse than google, missed both fashion and income tax

Step 6.

Microsoft Azure map even worse than google, show out of date business even older than google. 

Azure map does not have a public map, like google map does, they only have map API, so in order to see Azure map, you will have to use the model I create here. 

 

 

 

 

Step 7.

Yelp missed both business in same area. 

Yelp public website does not provide the capability to show all POI, you will have to use the model I create here to show yelp POI. 

 

 

 

 

Step 8.

Esri POI even worse than Microsoft. No business show in same area. 

ESRI do not have a public map to show POI, you will have to use the model I create here to show ESRI poi.

 

 

 

Step 9.

apple show this correctly, apple POI also catch this new business correctly

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 10.

google is out of date, 5 year old image, google POI still says old dollar market, which is wrong. 

 

 

 

 

Step 11.

 

 

 

Step 12.

 

 

 

 

Step 13.

for this tear down building, google has newer street view, but out of date POI info. Apple has out of date street view, but newer POI info. 

 

 

 

Step 14.

for this tear down building, google has newer street view, but out of date POI info. Apple has out of date street view, but newer POI info. 

 

 

 

Step 15.

for this tear down building, google has newer street view, but out of date POI info. Apple has out of date street view, but newer POI info. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 16.

I use iphone take photo in my car on site to verify,  google street view is correctly, while apple street view is out of date. 

While none of them capture this new open business so far 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 17.

I use iphone take photo in my car on site to verify,  google street view is correctly, while apple street view is out of date. 

This time, google POI is out of date, still showing old 4 business in Apple's street view. 

Apple POI is up to date, show NO business for this burn down  building. 

 

 

 

Step 18.

I use iphone take photo in my car on site to verify, both google street view, apple street view are up to date

howver, both google POI and apple POI are out of date. 

 

 

 

 

Step 19.

Summary, for this area 

Seems google street view is mostly up to date. 

Apple street view is generally slower than google street view.

 

Google POI is generally slower than google street view. 

Google POI is generally slower than apple POI. 

Apple POI is mostly up to date, above sample shows apple POI at least in this area better than google POI.
