Small Bussiness and Indoor – a tool from Apple.
Apple Map is now editable from every one using Small Business.
iBeacon has now a place to publish it’s location using Indoor.
Those services are not Apps.
Both sevices are accessibles by connecting to Apple Map Connect with your Apple ID.
Small Bussiness
Small Business enables you to publish in the Apple Maps App. It’s a tool that gives businesses more control of its listings in the Apple Map database. It allows small business owners to edith by adding street addresses, phone numbers, hours of operations, and more.
