Google introduces full update for Maps across Android smartphones and tablets; coming soon to iPhone and iPad.
Initially previewed at the annual I/O developer conference in May, the update is designed to make "exploring the world and getting to the places that matter to you a lot faster and easier".
The new design has introduced a cleaner, simpler interface; featuring only a single box, a button to centre the map on your location and menu button.
The tablet interface now resembles the Google Maps desktop app more closely, whilst adopting the card-based information system successfully deployed across mobile platforms as 'Google Now'.
While the new system is not currently available for iOS users, Google cryptically added the Apple update should be launched “soon”.
The update has made inroads into more intuitive navigation for driving by alerting you should a better route becomes available, and rerouting you to your destination faster.
