       | I'm still on 17.x, and if I ask it to show me pictures from
       | Angels Stadium, I get pictures from Angels Stadium. Mind, I have
       | no idea how it "knew" I was at Angels Stadium when I took the
       | picture. Apple Maps certainly knows where Angels Stadium is.
       | 
       | So I'm just not quite sure what this new function is bringing to
       | the table?
