Google Maps gets a new look
Google is updating Google Maps with a new look “that better reflects your world”.
The company has updated the driving, navigation, transit, and explore maps to highlight the relevant information.
Google Maps has also updated its colour scheme and added new icons to help identify points of interest.
“Places like a cafe, church, museum, or hospital will have a designated colour and icon, so that it’s easy to find that type of destination on the map,” said Google.
Users will start to see the changes over the coming weeks in all Google products that incorporate Google Maps.
“Over time, the new style will also appear in the apps, websites, and experiences offered by companies that use Google Maps APIs.”
