The reason is that users can easily embed Google map service into websites, making it almost everywhere. In an effort to make Apple Maps more popular in the market, 'Apples Apples' launched MapKit JS - a Javascript library that allows users to embed Apple Maps into their websites.

MapKit JS will optimize the map on different devices and browsers. Support navigation gestures like pinch-to-zoom, rotate two fingers . Right inside the browser, users can add annotations, overlay, use Apple Maps services such as Search and Direct.
