Recommendations for map applications in Korea
First, let me introduce 🍄Kakao Map Kakao Map I’ll explain it with a picture. It’s set in English or Korean, so it’s great for people with weak languages when they come for the first time, right?^_^ And there are various categories, and you can easily find nearby restaurants and coffee shops through the app.
Then I don’t have to look for restaurants or coffee shops, right? Or you can check what kind of food it is before you go to the menu, so you can choose what you want to eat, take a picture, and order quickly without any communication problems
Or you can find the bus stop route and the actual arrival time
You don’t have to wait at the bus stop in advance, check the arrival time, and then figure out the time when the bus will arrive and leave.
However, if you search once, only one bus stop nearby will show information. For other things, you can click once to get information such as arrival time.
And it’s not just a map APP, it’s also a recommendation for each topic.
As you can see in the picture, we have set various themes such as ski resort restaurants, restaurants for hikers, Korean botanical gardens recommendations, traditional Korean Lunar New Year events, and ice fishing festivals preferred by anglers
If you click on something you’re interested in, you’ll get a lot of information. Acquiring tourist information
So, to summarize, advantages:
1-Good for foreigners without worrying about language problems
2-Recommendation of restaurants around the world : Provide meal information to international students for the first time
3-Diversification of recommended functions for each theme (restaurants, tourist attractions, hot places, etc.)
1-A little uncomfortable when searching for nearby bus stops.

Various functions of Kakao Maps
an ultra-precise bus
Originally, it was provided only in Jeju Island, but now it is expanded to provide Jeju, Seogwipo, Chuncheon, Ulsan, Mokpo, Busan, and Gwangju. A real-time service that shows the bus icon moving on the map and the current location and approximate speed of the bus every 10 seconds.
the subway
It supports information on transportation routes for the weak, general route maps and express route maps of urban railroads nationwide, and directions finding functions. I use data from Kakao subway.
3D tilting
If you lower the map plate with two fingers and turn it sideways on a regular map, it looks 3D.# Mobile Only
3D Sky View
It is similar to Google Earth’s 3D feature. You can see the map in 3D. It is not provided in the case of mountainous.
Theme map
It makes place data into content and provides it with a good look good.
Share Talk Friend Location
A function that allows you to share and check the current location, real-time location for a certain period of time, and destination movement path with Kakao Talk friends on Kakao Map.
Kakao i
You can give directions and music commands using an artificial intelligence secretary.
Search for places, addresses, and buses
Since the speed of the update is the life of search, it is more accurate to use it in a way that checks after searching on the Naver map at the same time. In addition, each store can see a review board and rate it. Ratings and reviews are often terrorized or manipulated, so please filter them on your own. It may be honest, but it is often used to exaggerate or undermine intentionally, and it is often manipulated by companies or agencies for advertising.
Traffic information
It informs you of the traffic situation. It is useful in this regard because it sometimes marks the accident site, assembly, and construction information. And it provides CCTV.
a bicycle path
You can see a bicycle general road and a private road. It is quite useful for Jadeoks, which provide many details of bicycle paths such as stairs and ramps.
Bicycle navigation
Provides bike path information, slopes, driving records (GPX files), guidance voice, etc.
