Google Maps For iOS Adds Travel Times Extension, Easy Sharing And Customisable Night Mode

iOS: Google Maps got a handy new update today that adds in an extension so you can quickly check the travel time to your home or work from the Notification Center. It also adds in improved sharing and a night mode toggle.

Once you enable the travel times widget, you can pull down Notification Center and you’ll see the time it takes to get home or to work from wherever you are. You can also now easily share directions with someone by tapping the three-dot icon in the top right, then selecting “Share directions”. Finally, you can now set the colour scheme to whatever you want. Automatic swaps between day and night mode based on the time of day, or you can override that to set it to whichever you prefer.
