Google is integrating and expanding the use of AI in Maps.
Search with Live View is being renamed to ‘Lens in Maps’ which makes it easy to identify locations around you.
Announced at I/O 2023, Immersive View for routes is now rolling out to select cities across the world.
Many of these new features are coming to both iOS and Android starting “this week.”
If it weren’t obvious by now, Google is working on more and more ways to infuse AI with its various apps and services. The latest of which comes to Google Maps, as the company has announced several major changes that will begin rolling out this week.

The first of which is the improved “Lens in Maps” feature, which was formerly known as “Search with Live View.” Essentially, this combines AI with augmented reality to quickly and easily identify locations around you. Besides the name change, Google also announced that the feature will soon be available in “more than 50 new cities.”
