The recent feature will highlight the places even after he/she closes the Google Maps window - so that the user can take a break from planning and come back to it later without ever losing the progress. Taking up 100 times less space on your device than the full Google Maps app, Google Maps Go is designed to run smoothly on devices with limited memory and on unreliable networks without compromising speed to provide your location, real-time traffic updates, directions, and train, bus, and city transit information. Once updated to the latest version in July, Google will also improve the Recents feature, which is used by most people, who plan trips on Google Maps. The new glanceable directions will start rolling out globally this month for walking, cycling, and driving modes on Android and iOS apps. This way, users don't have to stare at the phone all the time and just enjoy the walk seeing the stores around and only see the phone, while taking a turn. If the user decides to take another path, the Maps app will update the trip automatically.

The Maps will automatically update the ETAs (Estimated Time of Arrival) and where to make your next turn. Google Maps gets new glanceable directions feature.
