Navigation in China
Every day now uses verified AMap POI IDs with cross-platform HTTPS links (Android + iOS). Tapping Open AMap requests the installed app; if blocked, use POI details. Pins marked as a building or general station are identified in their notes. For any still-unverified exact place, copy the full Chinese address rather than trusting an ambiguous search. Save this site to your home screen and visit the day pages once online for offline caching.
