Google brings back compass on Maps for Android users
April 03, 2021
Maps to get a range of new AI-powered features this year
Google is bringing back the compass feature on Maps. “We’re excited to announce the return of the compass on Maps for Android,” it said in a post on the Google Maps help forum.
The compass was removed from Maps for Android in early 2019 “in an effort to clean up the Navigation screen.”
However, owing to user demand, the tech-giant is bringing back the feature.
“When you use Maps on Android to navigate to a destination, the compass will, again, be featured as one of the widgets on the right side of the screen. As you rotate, the red arrow will indicate which direction is north,” it further explained.
The Aam Aadmi Party on Saturday attacked the BJP over the landfills in the city.
Citing an IIT report, AAP said the landfills in Delhi are causing a loss of ₹450 crore to the environment.
The party also said they have completed 2,500 mohalla sabhas across the city to expose BJP’s alleged corruption in the municipal corporations.
“A report made by the National Environment Tribunal, Central Pollution Board and IIT-Delhi have conducted a collective scientific analysis. In the report, they have found out that these three garbage mountains have cost a loss of ₹450 crores to the environment of Delhi. If you study the report in detail, they have said that the garbage mountains have ruined the underground water reserve up to 10-15 kms around those mountains,” said AAP leader Durgesh Pathak at a press meet.
