I do not see Apple Maps as an App in my iCloud. Does that mean it is an exception to the iCloud Apps that DO sync across devices?
I would like to sync my iPhone Maps app Favorites and my MacBook Pro Map app Favorites in some way.
iPhone 8, iOS 16
I have those settings on my iPhone, but still not making connection to share the Favorites etc.
I do not see Maps in same area on my MAC, and cannot figure out how to get there if needed. Could that be the problem?

Hi Al_Chance,
Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities.
You can sync Maps data using iCloud. On iPhone go to Settings > your name> iCloud. You may have to select Show All and make sure that the button is on for Maps. If you're signed in with the same Apple ID on both devices, the content from iPhone will sync to content on your Mac and your Favorites will be viewable.
Regards.
Hello Al_Chance,
If you open the Maps app on your Mac and click Maps > Account in Maps, does it look like you're currently logged in, or does it prompt you to log in?

Cheers!
Hi Al_Chance,
Did you follow the steps in our previous message to make sure you're signed into your iCloud account within the Maps app on your Mac?
If so, we suggest testing to see if the issue persists in safe mode. This will help to isolate the issue further. You can find steps for booting into safe mode here: How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support
Let us know the results.
Take care.
It opens like any other App - ready to use. The window shows my Favorites on left side (that are different from what is on my iPhone because I created them on MAC to test this), with a Map on the right side .
Yes I did.
Thanks for your help, but to do anything like what you suggested I will have to be guided by a live Support person.
