Google Maps has revealed that iPhone users will “soon” get to experience an updated Live View during location sharing, along with all Android users later on.
“So doing, if a user opens Live View in the Maps app, when a friend shares a pin from a park, the user will see arrows and directions telling him/her exactly where to go.
“The user needs to click on Live View and instead of guessing which meadow the other person is, the user will be directed right to the other person’s direction. “One of the feature beta tester said.
Google Maps also integrated its Live View to label landmarks in some cities. These cities include; Amsterdam, Bangkok, Barcelona, Berlin, Budapest, Dubai, Florence, Istanbul, Kuala Lumpur, Kyoto, London, Los Angeles, Madrid, Milan, Munich, New York, Osaka, Paris, Prague, Rome, San Francisco, Sydney, Tokyo, and Vienna. Also Live View only works on AR-compatible phones.
