Months after they announced its existence, Google Maps is now rolling out its Augmented Reality navigation feature, but only for selected users. They’re still in testing mode and it would need more feedback from a larger set of users, in this case Local Guides, before they can release it to everyone else. This feature will help you navigate better in the “real world” and can help GPS pin your location more accurately. However, it is something not meant to be used the entire time as it might become dangerous for yourself and others.
The walking feature was introduced at the Google I/O Conference last year and lets you navigate through Google Maps but with an AR overlay that only you can see on your phone of course.
