Google Maps’ main feature remains navigation and directions, but nobody would blame you if you were using it increasingly more to discover places around you. It’s very easy to do and a tool that can come in handy when traveling to a new city or on vacation. I might be an iPhone user, but I go to Google Maps when traveling to search for certain places and inspect the neighborhood.
Google is looking to improve how Google Maps lets you find new places. The company announced new features that should make travelling this summer easier than before. Artificial intelligence (AI) powers some of them, as expected. And Google announced a design update is coming soon.
