Sean Fernback, President of HERE, said: "We want to bring our maps and services to as many people as possible, no matter whether they are in the car or using a smartphone or smartwatch. Bringing the HERE experience to iOS is a natural step for us as we now extend our reach to all major mobile platforms."

Nitesh Patel, Director, Wireless Media Strategies at Strategy Analytics, said: "Extending the reach of its apps to both Android and iOS is the right move for HERE. The company has leading capabilities in the field of digital maps and location, and making them available through free apps to as many people as possible will not only help in growing its reach to consumers, but will also have benefits for other parts of HERE's business. In both automotive and enterprise markets, people's familiarity with HERE services will help build a platform for success in the age of the connected car and the internet of things."
