QtechLab said:

Hello there,

I read some posts here in B4X forums.
I'm trying to open apple maps from my application, i tryed with this code, got solution from another post
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/load-maps-using-coordinates.106670/post-667661

This code doesn't open anything

B4X:

If evtUser.ValidAddress Then
  Dim mapString As Object ="http://maps.apple.com/?daddr="& evtUser.Indirizzo & " + " & evtUser.CAP & " + " & evtUser.Citta & " + " & evtUser.Prov
  Main.App.OpenURL(mapString)
  'Main.App.OpenURL($ mapString $)
End if

The device is an iPhone12 with iOS 15.

Thanks in advance for your time

    End If

if you want to pass an address you have to use the following code:

B4X:

Private mainstr As String = "http://maps.apple.com/?q=Piazza%20Mazzini,Roma"
    If (App.CanOpenURL(mainstr)) Then
        App.OpenURL(mainstr)
    End If
