Apple no longer have the Google My Business app on their mobile devices by default.\u00a0 Instead, iPhones and iPads come with Apple’s own map listing app – Apple Maps Connect.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This means that Fire & Security Systems installers<\/a> have an extra free listing to create for their companies. But many of these business owners and directors don’t know about it!<\/span><\/p>\n

So they’re not being seen by people searching for intruder\u00a0alarms<\/em>\u00a0 or access control<\/em>\u00a0on their Apple devices.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fire & Security Systems Installers and Apple Maps<\/span><\/h3>\n

There are two important things you need to know about listings on Apple Maps.<\/p>\n

1. You cannot list your business on Apple Maps if you work from home.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Their rules say:<\/p>\n

We currently only accept businesses whose customers visit them and where we can confirm a physical presence.<\/em><\/p>\n

No dedicated premises? No Apple Map listing.<\/p>\n

This is a great way for accredited installation companies to stand out. The weekend engineers who work from their home garages can’t have a listing on Apple Maps Connect.<\/p>\n

2. Apple Maps comes with several hundred categories. <\/strong><\/p>\n

But we’ve saved you the bother of searching through them all. With thanks to\u00a0Phil Rozek’s fabulous cheatsheet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Security Systems Installers who work with domestic customers.\u00a0<\/h4>\n

The category you need to select in the Category 1 box is Home Services.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sub-category is\u00a0security systems<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Commercial Security Systems Installations<\/h4>\n

In the Category 2 box, you select Professional Services<\/strong>\u00a0.<\/p>\n

The sub-category is security services<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For Fire Safety or Prevention, there doesn’t seem to be a category.<\/p>\n

Don’t miss out on this free opportunity to increase website traffic from mobile Apple devices.<\/p>\n
