Google Maps on Android Shows What’s Nearby

Google has released an update to the Android Google Maps app. Now, you can “long-press on the map, tap on the bubble, and look for ’What’s nearby?’ in the menu.” According to Google, you will then find 10 closest places such as “restaurants, shops and other points of interest”. Google announced that in the future, you will also be able to click “New me now” on iPhones or Android phones when accessing google.com.
