Recently Google has added a new feature in Google Maps, which is
known as the “Covid-19 layer,” and now Google is all set to launch a new care
mode UI for Google Maps. The new interface is currently in beta testing and is
available to only a few Google Maps users. The new interface will introduce big
buttons in the app. Using these buttons, Google Maps users can quickly navigate
through the Google Maps app while they are driving their car.
The new car mode UI is somewhat similar to Android Auto
navigation UI. However, it’s not entirely identical to the Android Auto
navigation UI. The UI features two buttons. On the left-hand side, you get a
microphone button that you can use to launch the Google Assistant on your
mobile. Similarly, on the right-hand side, you get a menu button/ home button
that will launch a new screen, which will include all the essential apps of
your phone like calls app, messages app, Spotify app, YouTube Music app, etc.
Right above it, you will see the music playback controls in the
app. Besides this, there is no change in the main Google Maps screen and
Navigation UI. When you tap on the menu button and click on the icons, you will
see their respective screen along with large UI buttons and cards on your
mobile.
The new car mode Ui is very similar to Android Auto phone UI.
But it’s not entirely identical to Android Auto navigation UI (Which is going
to be replaced by the “Assistant Driving mode” in the near future).
The new car mode UI is currently in beta testing and is
available to only a few Google Map users. Besides this, Google has not revealed
when this new car mode UI will be available for all the Google Maps users. So,
if you haven’t received the new car mode UI on your Google Maps app, then you
will have to wait a little bit longer to get your hands on it.
Our View
Google is working day and night to add lots of unique features for
Android users to make their life more comfortable during this COVID-19
epidemic. Recently Google had launched a new feature in the Google Maps app
“COVID- 19 layer,” and now it is all set to release the new care mode UI for
Google Maps users. Overall, the new car mode UI is really unique, and we can’t
wait to get our hands on it. But we might have to wait a little bit longer for
this new car mode UI because it is still in beta testing.
