Google has announced a complete replacement of its most popular Maps app, with new features.
The redesigned version of the app was introduced by Google on the 15th anniversary of Google Maps. Following this redesign, the app will now provide 5 tabs below, including Explore, Commute, Saved, Contribute and Updates.
In the Contribute tab, people will be able to provide Google with local details such as traffic conditions, while the Updates tab will tell you locations via local travel guides or articles.
A new feature Transit System is also being introduced that will inform people about the transit status and public shareholders.
The app’s logo and icons are also being redesigned and will now be mapped to Google’s specific colors.
Over the past few years, Google has tried to make Maps as an information hub rather than a navigation tool, adding details for hotel bookings with transit features, food delivery, and air flights.
In December last year, Google revealed that Google Maps now covers more than 98% of the world and has collected more than 100 million miles of Street View imagery.
When it comes to a million miles, Google says the distance is as high as 400 times around the world, and Google Earth has more than 36 million square miles of satellite imagery available for subscribers.

Google introduced the Live View tool last year, which incorporates augmented reality technology and adds digital graphics to real-world images, and now the company has said that the tool will be rolled out to more users in the coming months.
