Following its announcement back in March, Google Maps appears to be rolling out its “Immersive Navigation” redesign more broadly, but not everyone has it yet. Do you?
“Immersive Navigation” is the biggest update Google Maps has had in about a decade, introducing much more specific navigation maps, especially in city/urban locations. It also leverages Google’s AI prowess in places such as natural language voice guidance and analysis of local routes and landmarks.
Google initially said back in March that the update was rolling out, but seemingly to a tiny initial audience. The “over the coming months” seems to have more broadly arrived, though, as we’re starting to see more user reports of the redesign showing up for users.
The most prominent example here is on a Reddit thread where an Android Auto user spotted the new design live in their vehicle.
The folks over at ZDNet also say they’ve noticed the change through Android Auto, albeit without a picture to show for it.
