The new look on mobile is radically better for me. Street names are visible and legible! Whatever the regression in usability is, I've been too busy enjoying being able to read street names when I'm trying to navigate or quickly orient myself.
I'm a little confused, what is the usability issue?
Whats the issue ? Its information dense because he has every option turned on. Turn off traffic overlay and you'd get a single blue line of the directions.
One thing that I've noticed recently is a whole lot of merchants show up on the map, where they really aren't. Like it's the home address of an online seller or something?
I use Google maps mostly for biking/walking and a Garmin my car so I haven't noticed the change as much.
What's different from the way it was before?
Iām pissed off at modern Google Maps as the next guy, but what is the problem in the screenshot? Flagged for low effort post.
It's not just you. Most of the visible changes Google has made to its interfaces in the past few years have been horrific regressions. maps.google.com and google.com/maps got squished into each other and features are disappearing along the way.
I really need to get out of my Gmail account but I've got enough going on in my life to even begin to contemplate the struggle of deGoogling right now.
I'm trying to think of the last time I saw a good headline about Google.
what is this?

Check out the difference between Apple Maps and Google Maps when looking at an airport (O'Hare). https://imgur.com/a/BlvCImv Apple puts emphasis on security checkpoints and gate numbers, where Google puts emphasis on McDonalds and Starbucks
