Google Maps just made it a lot easier to find your car — and it's coming to iPhones first

Google Maps.

Google Maps has a new parking tool that automatically detects where you parked your vehicle and saves that location, plus you can highlight your parking spot with a custom icon.

The feature was recently announced by Rio Akasaka, Senior Product Manager for Google Maps, on LinkedIn (spotted by 9to5Google). According to Akasaka, the new tool lets the navigation app know when you’ve parked, automatically saves that location, and then removes it when you start driving again.
