A remarkable feature has arrived in Maps, one of the well-known services of the US-based technology giant Google. Users in the Android and iOS ecosystem will now be able to see the weather and air quality information of a place they will go to in advance. The update in the distribution phase seems to offer users a better experience.
The new feature prepared for Google Maps will welcome users on the home page of the application. In the upper left part, there will be a small box showing what the weather is like. Temperature and weather events will be displayed here. Users will also see relevant information in regions where the air quality index is active.
This is what Google Maps’ new feature will look like:
A user who taps on the new tile added to the application will be able to view 12-hour weather forecasts in the region. Users who want more detailed information can access “weather.com” via this box.
However, this is not all the new feature of Google Maps. By touching the “Layer” option at the top right, the user will be able to add air quality index data to the map. However, we should point out that this feature is not available in Turkey. In our inspections, we see that the feature has become widespread in some European countries and North America.
Since Google Maps’ new feature is currently in the distribution phase, you may not be able to access this feature right away. However, we hope that this situation will change in a very short time.
