The Maps app update in iOS 13 brings significant improvements. The maps data is much better, there’s a Look Around feature, and you can now share a Live ETA from Maps app navigation on your iPhone to friends and family.

The next time you’re on your way to meet a friend, or if you want your parents to know how long it will take to get home, just use this Live ETA feature in the Maps app. Once it’s enabled, the app will share your live location and your estimated arrival time with your contact.

Make sure you’re running iOS 13.1 or higher on your iPhone and launch the Maps app. Next, search for and select a destination. Once the destination is selected, tap on the “Directions” button.

Tap on Directions from the location page

From the next screen, select the mode of transport and then tap on the “Go” button.

Tap on Go to start navigation

You’re now on the navigation screen. From here, you’ll see a “Share ETA” button at the bottom of the screen, below the details for the time of arrival.

Tap on Share ETA text

The Share ETA panel disappears after a few seconds. If you missed the button, you can still access the feature by swiping up on the bottom panel and tapping on the “Share ETA” icon in the bottom-left corner of the screen.
