In addition to Chinese and English, the platform now supports 14 new languages: Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Turkish, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Malay, Indonesian, and Vietnamese.

Founded in 2002, Amap initially offered services only in Chinese. In January this year, it became the first domestic platform to introduce an English-language version designed specifically for international users.

The updated multilingual version now provides translated names and descriptions for tourist attractions, restaurants, hotels, and other key destinations. This helps international users better understand and explore their surroundings.

It also features Amap's full suite of navigation services for drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport users, allowing international visitors to navigate Chinese cities as easily as locals.

In addition, the map includes an English-language ride-hailing interface. Users can book rides from various providers with one tap and view key details like pickup locations and fare estimates in English.

The latest multilingual version of Amap is available for download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play.
