Apple pays those who help improve the Maps app

The Apple Maps thing is one of those stories that started badly at the beginning and that little by little with the hard work of the users together with the efforts of the Cupertino company itself it has become quite up to date, and today we can say that the application Apple Maps works quite well. Obviously, it will always have the shadow of Google Maps on top and this is inevitable for an application that offers a similar service, but we can not blame effort and improvements in Apple Maps since those turbulent beginnings in September 2012.

Apple engineers provide everything necessary to the application to add the improvements and this requires work teams in the middle of the street, which in part millions of users around the world have done by sending the company their reports on wrong streets, roads or even some iconic landmarks locations in wrong cities. But besides all this the company has some external companies who are in charge of looking for those faults. All these companies require users and staff to find errors in Apple Maps and improve the tool itself, which leads to the payment of small amounts of money.

This work has been going on for some time and now some details are known about the prices Cupertino pay for sending the corrections. Those in charge of performing these tasks have specific areas (those in which the most errors are reported) and can only share 600 errors in a week working less than twenty hours a week. For each of these tasks successfully solved Apple rewards with payment of 54 cents. This is not a very high amount and it seems that it is exclusive in the places where more error reports are reported in Maps.
