Icons in Maps app

In Apple maps on my Mac I can click on an icon representing, say, a restaurant and a little box pops up telling me its name and other info. Maps on my iPhone has the same icons, but there doesn't seem to be a way to get any details about the business represented by the icon. Is there a way to do this?

Hello Stuart,


If you want information about a place icon in Maps on the iPhone you would tap the icon to bring up the banner for it then tap the > at the right for more info.


Get more info - iPhone

Get info about a location. Tap a pin to display its banner, then tap >. Info might include Yelp reviews and photos, a phone number (tap to call it), a webpage link, directions, and more.

I just tested on my iPhone with several locations.


Where is it not working for you?
