Google Maps will get social features

As you know, in the spring Google refused from your social network Google+. However, it seems that the idea remains. It was just moved to another application. The popular Google Maps service is reportedly becoming a kind of analogue of the defunct system. The application has long had the ability to publish photos, share comments and reviews about places visited. Now the “good corporation” has simply taken another step.

Google Maps will get social features

From now on, you can now track posts of active users and add your own routes with recommendations for attractions and establishments. This feature is called Local Experts. Other users will be able to use the already laid out route and follow it.

The new feature is expected to be tested first in Tokyo, Delhi, London, New York, Mexico City, Osaka, San Francisco, Sao Paulo and Bangkok. They promise to announce the full launch date later. And pre-registration in the “Local Experts” community available already on the official website.

Of course, it will take time to create a large number of routes. And paranoid people are unlikely to like the idea that Google will monitor their movements. However, the company does not seem to be bothered by the latter. It is also obvious that the company is not ready to give up such a tasty morsel as social networks, albeit in a unique way. But the company Yes and the Currents service.

One good thing is that the project seems to be free. The same streaming service Google Stadia has already been called beta testing, for which users are forced to pay their own money. You can learn more about the quality of work of the advertised service. read the in our material.
