Great news for iPad users, today we would like to tell you that Google has just released Google Maps 2.0 with a lot of new features and iPad support. Although Apple’s Maps application has significantly improved in recent months, many folks still prefer to use Google’s offering. And since it launched its standalone Maps app on iOS last December, users have been clamoring for an iPad version. Well, here it is…
We all know that the update has been available only for certain Asian countries, but it couldn’t be downloaded in the United States. In fact, the Google Maps app was gone altogether for a while.
The Google Maps 2.0 update is now showing in the US App Store. Here’s the full change log:
– New design for iPad– Enhanced navigation including live traffic updates and incident reports– Explore: A new way to browse and discover popular local places to eat, drink, shop, play and sleep– Simple 5-star ratings and reviews from friends, plus expert Zagat content– Great deals from your favorite brands with Google Offers– Indoor maps with walking directions for malls, transit stations, airports and more
