!(15 The web app_s uncluttered interface.png) When you open in your Internet browser, you’ll see an uncluttered interface that gives a lot of space to the map display itself.
Accordingly, the UIs that connect you to those features have evolved as well. In the time since they launched in 2005, the apps have grown to include more and more powerful features. Google is known for providing web services with clean and intuitive UIs, and the Google Maps applications are no exception. Let’s start with the various UIs – the ways that Google Maps is packaged and presented to us users. Then we’ll look at how to get the most out of Google Maps through features and products like Directions and Explore, or by customizing and contributing with Google My Maps and.the Local Guides program. You’ll find shortcuts, tips and tricks that you can start using straight away. In this chapter, we first take a look at the UIs for the Google Maps applications. But, just like we saw in Chapter 2: What is Google Maps?, there’s a lot more to using Google Maps than many of these billions of users might realize.
With billions of users worldwide, Google Maps products and their intuitive, simple user interfaces ( UIs) definitely don’t need a how-to guide. The first two chapters introduced us to Google Maps and showed us what it is – or showed us that it’s a lot more than we thought at least.
