A redesigned version of Google Maps first seen in February before disappearing has returned once again.
Back in February we told you about a UI design change that was seemingly coming to the Android version of Google Maps. This fresh look replaced full-page UIs with sheets allowing a user to view in the background more of the map showing some of the area that he or she is navigating. The goal is to keep at least part of the map showing in the background throughout the app. These maps can be closed by tapping on the „Exit“ icon (looks like the letter „X“) located next to the Share icon. But Google pulled the redesign not long after it appeared.
According to 9to5Google, these changes are returning to some Android handsets as Google appears to be testing the redesigned UI once again.
