LINE and Yahoo Japan are set to release a new map application called "Maply" on February 24, 2026. The app, which will be available as a free iOS app, Android app, and web version, is powered by generative AI from OpenAI.
Maply aims to provide users with an enhanced mapping experience by integrating AI capabilities. While specific features were not detailed in the announcement, the use of OpenAI's technology suggests the app may offer intelligent navigation, personalized recommendations, or conversational search.
Users can access Maply for free across multiple platforms. For more information, the developer has provided a blog post and a YouTube video tutorial.
