iOS 18.4 Introduces New Default App Categories

  • New Features: iOS 18.4 brings two new categories for setting default apps: Translation and Navigation.
  • Translation: Available globally, allows users to set a third-party translation app (e.g., Google Translate) as the default instead of Apple’s Translate app.
  • Navigation: Currently limited to EU users, this feature lets you change the default navigation app from Apple Maps to another option like Google Maps or Waze.
  • Functionality: Default apps are used system-wide, so tapping an address in iMessage will open it in your preferred navigation app.
  • Settings Path: Users can configure these settings by navigating to Settings ⇾ Apps ⇾ Default Apps.
