MapLink Router

About

MapLink Router makes map links behave the way you expect: when you tap an address or “Directions” on the web, it opens in your preferred navigation app—Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze—instead of whatever the website picked. HOW IT WORKS * Runs as a Safari Web Extension (enable it once in Settings → Safari → Extensions) * Detects supported map/location links and reroutes them to your chosen app * Uses on-device link parsing and routing — no analytics, no tracking, no telemetry WHAT YOU’LL LOVE * Choose your default: Apple Maps / Google Maps / Waze * Supports common place/search and directions links from Apple Maps and Google Maps (and routes to Waze too) * Optional “Enhanced” mode: if you land on a Google Maps directions page (including from Google Search “Directions”), it can automatically open the route in your preferred app * If a link can’t be routed confidently, it’s left alone IMPORTANT NOTES * Safari only (iOS/iPadOS). Other browsers and in-app browsers aren’t supported in v1.0 * Some link types (like certain short links) may not redirect, by design * Opening apps is best-effort: Works best when the link stays in Safari; if a maps app opens first, it can’t reroute. If the app isn’t installed, the link opens in Safari
