Google's November Pixel Drop brings AI photo remixing to Google Messages, AI-powered notification summaries, scam alerts in chat messages, and at least one thing for AI haters: Power Saving Mode in Google Maps. https://blog.google/products/pixel/november-2025-pixel-drop/ #PixelDrop #Google #Android #GoogleMaps #AI

#Frage an #Android oder #eOS User in der #Schweiz, die sich von #Google lösen wollen: Was verwendet ihr als #Alternative zu #GoogleMaps, etwa für Wegfindung in einer Stadt? Navigation, aktuelle Karten (zu Fuss), inkl. ÖV.
Ich habe derzeit OsmAnd (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.osmand), bin aber damit nicht so richtig happy. Ich möchte manchmal Gehdistanzen messen, ohne gleich eine Route zu erstellen oder Navigation zu starten.

New Google Maps logo is blurring the lines - a symbol how it infiltrates your #privacy?

But who would think evil of #Google?

I've lately been quite obsessed with this app called StreetComplete. It gamifies contributing to OpenStreetMaps in a really nice way by giving you you little quests to do while you walk around. A fun way to get some steps in, to make you look closer at your environment and to do a good thing!

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.westnordost.streetcomplete

@Techaltar Dam useful and often allows users to input info that is valid and correct and ensures its not gatekeeped such as what happens with #googlemaps

I just love the level of detail that #OpenStreetMap can get compared to commercial maps like #GoogleMaps.

Here is a side by side comparison of McMurdo Station, Antartica.

Screenshot of Google Maps centered on McMurdo Station. We see a few main roads and a few landmarks being identified by a marker.

1/ Since the theme of this #MythologyMonday is "Maps", I'd like to talk about the importance of maps for my research of German #folklore . A majority of German folk tales mention real world physical locations, but actually finding these locations can be tricky, since they are often obscure, have different spelling, or are no longer used in the modern day. Yet I still want to identify them so that my readers can actually visit these places if they want!

2/ I usually start my searches with #GoogleMaps and #OpenStreetMap , since each of them usually includes some searchable locations that the other does not.

https://www.openstreetmap.org/

A surprising third contender is MapCarter, which frequently has some very obscure place names that the other two do not.

L'extension de @nextinpact qui alerte sur les sites #GenAI vient de s'ouvrir en arrivant sur Google Maps.

L'odeur de sapin flotte un peu plus fortement que d'habitude sur les services de Google, ce matin...

#GoogleMaps#AI

Copie d'écran du site internet de Google Maps, où l'on voit un pop-up informatif avec le message suivant : 

"Le règlement européen sur l'intelligence artificielle obligera à partir d'août 2026 les contenus « synthétiques » à être identifiables comme ayant été générés ou manipulés par une IA.

Or, d'après les constatations (humaines) de Next.ink, des articles de ce site semblent avoir été (en tout ou partie) générés par IA (il pourrait aussi s'agir d'un « faux positif », mais la probabilité est faible).

Pour en savoir plus, nous signaler d'autres sites GenAI, ou si votre site aurait été identifié à tort, cliquez sur le bouton de l'extension."

💡 De mon POV, l'affichage carte de #GoogleMaps est pauvre, mal calibré, illisible, grossier, brouillon… rendant la projection spatiale laborieuse lors de la préparation d'un voyage.

❤️ Dans @openstreetmap / @osm_fr via, par exemple, @CoMaps, je comprends facilement où je vais mettre les pieds ; la richesse et la précision des infos affichées me permettent de me repérer très facilement, en réduisant au minimum les erreurs d'interprétation de l'environnement qui m'entoure.

Can anyone with a regular and recent #stockROM#Android phone confirm if they were able to uninstall (not deactivate!) pre-installed apps like #Chrome, #Youtube, #GoogleMaps, #GoogleDrive, #GooglePhotos, or #Gmail ?

Hmmm, so #Google lobbyists claim "All apps on Android can be uninstalled" but from my testing on #Android 16 with all latest updates on a #Pixel this appears to be false.

Google's own #DMA compliance report from March 2025 says this is wrong:

"Android allows to uninstall apps by: (i) fully deleting apps that are downloaded or pre-installed in the user partition; and (ii) uninstalling apps in the system partition such that they are returned into an uninstalled state."

Observation. #GoogleMaps has updated the #GulfOfMexico to be #GulfOfAmerica. #OpenStreetMap apps such as #OSMand and #OrganicMaps have not. And it isn't for lack of contribution; there's tons of contributions in this area of the map just in the last couple hours. It's just that, as an open source non profit not based in the US; it's a little less susceptible to political nonsense like renaming a body of water to be more 'Murican. Who would've thought maps could get political.

A screenshot of OSMand showing the Gulf of Mexico still labeled correctly.
