Are you tired of that weird “navigation arrow” found in Street View? Well, Google is replacing that with a smoother “blue link” that will allow users to swipe and scroll through images more quickly.
Here’s an example of what we would normally see (on mobile):
Although I wasn’t able to get the new look myself, here’s what it looks like on Google Maps for the iPhone (I’m also on iPhone, and I couldn’t replicate it myself):
[fusion_builder_container hundred_percent=”yes” overflow=”visible”][fusion_builder_row][fusion_builder_column type=”1_1″ background_position=”left top” background_color=”” border_size=”” border_color=”” border_style=”solid” spacing=”yes” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” padding=”” margin_top=”0px” margin_bottom=”0px” class=”” id=”” animation_type=”” animation_speed=”0.3″ animation_direction=”left” hide_on_mobile=”no” center_content=”no” min_height=”none”]
For Greg Sterling, who discovered this, he found that the images resolve more quickly and smoothly. He wasn’t able to replicate this on Android, there’s a good chance this could come to all version of Google Maps.
