Open in apple maps if iProduct

Below is a basic example that can be added to the frontend of your project to detect apple devices and open the link in apple maps instead.

var googlemapsurl = "https://maps.google.com/maps:";
var links = document.querySelectorAll('a[href*="' + googlemapsurl +'"]'), i;
for (i = 0; i < links.length; ++i) {
    links[i].addEventListener("click", function(event) {
        event.preventDefault();
        var link = this.getAttribute("href");

        if ((navigator.platform.indexOf("iPhone") != -1) || (navigator.platform.indexOf("iPod") != -1) || (navigator.platform.indexOf("iPad") != -1)) {
            link.replace(googlemapsurl, "maps://maps.apple.com/");
        }

        window.open(link);
    });
}
