Google Maps launched some big changes on iPhone and Android, with a brand-new layout and quick access to more options. Here are some tips and tricks to get the most out of the update.
Google Maps rolled out a big new update on iPhone and Android recently, which started hitting phones in the last week or so.
There are now five buttons on the bottom of the screen, including Explore, Go, Saved, Contribute and Updates. Some of these options were already available in Google Maps, but they were hidden away inside menus. Now they're front and center, and they're pretty useful for finding the best way to get somewhere, reviews of places you visit, recommendations on restaurants you might want to check out nearby and to quickly access lists of places you want to visit when you travel somewhere.
It's a useful tab if you land in a city for work and want to know where to go for a restaurant, or maybe if there's some good nightlife events going on while you're in town.The "Go" tab used to be called "Commute." It now includes information on how long it will take to get to destinations you've recently searched for, how long it will take you to get home or to work by the transit system of your choice and nearby public transit lines.
