Google Maps is one of the best navigation apps out there, offering tools and features designed to help you explore the world. Street View and Live View have been particularly useful, especially if you’re heading to an unfamiliar city, but the brand new Immersive View takes that concept to a whole other level.
The idea behind Immersive View is that Google maps generates a 3D map of a particular city. That gives you a better idea of the scale and scope of the area in question, and is probably the closest thing you can get to actually being there. But this isn’t just a Google version of Apple Maps’ Flyover Mode, because it also includes the option to go inside buildings, and see 3D models of their interior.
