Until now, the Street View service of Google Maps was practically the only service provider in Hungary.

Apple has launched its service with a complete road database, so in addition to the street views of big cities, small settlements are included. However, recordings are typically at least two years old.

Street View, which has been available in Hungary for 13 years, started recording images again in some regions in March.
