How to increase the angle of tilt in 3d mode in Maps
I've seen no comments anywhere about the fantastic resolution of most of the satellite photos used in Apple's Maps app. Most people are using Maps to look at cities, but if you want to be truly amazed, take a look at Maps' satellite views of Canada's northern wilderness. Here are two screenshots of the same location in the Northwest Territories, the first from Maps, and the second from Google Earth Pro:
It's really quite striking, and if I want to see what a wilderness area looks like from the air, I will always choose Maps.
There is one problem however, and that is that if you want to take a good 3D look at an area, the tilt of the Maps 3D view decreases significantly as you zoom in closer to the ground, effectively losing the ability to see what the terrain is really like. Google Earth, of course, gives a great 3D view at practically any angle, but very often (although not always) the resolution of its satellite photos in faraway wilderness areas is so bad that all you see is a big blur.
So my question is, how in Maps do I increase the angle of tilt in 3D view even when close to the ground, just like in Google Earth?
