Google Maps Update Adds Weather Information for Android Users

Google Maps has finally rolled out a new feature for Android users that was previously exclusive to iOS. The weather and AQI widget overlay is now available for Android, providing real-time information to users. Here’s what you need to know about the latest update:

– The feature is being rolled out in waves, so keep an eye out for a small rectangular box in the top-left corner of the app
– The box displays the temperature and AQI (air quality index) but can be tapped for more detailed weather information, including a 12-hour forecast
– Tapping on the AQI part of the widget will show the existing Air Quality map layer
– It’s important to note that selecting anything else in the app will cause the weather box to disappear
– While this update has been available to some Android users for a few weeks, it is now expanding its availability, so if you don’t have it yet, expect it to arrive very soon

Stay tuned for more updates on Google Maps features and enhancements!
