With the new updates and imagery, a lot of detail has been removed. I recall that the first images used to allow the bottom of the ocean exploration with a smooth transition from land to sea. Ive been a fan of google earth for a long time now. And yes, even though I didn’t pay anything I still feel shortchanged. I now know that if I had a desktop I’d be able to look at the moon and mars so I feel really gypped now. Overall really great concept but what I’m gathering from other reviews, the app particularly for iPad is super low quality compared to others. It is absolutely impossible to tell one country/state from the next with the impossibly thin tan line separating everything that, oh yea, is the same color that is used for most of the landscape. Also, it would be really enjoyable (and easier on my old lady eyes) to be able to make borders bold or different colors or even cut out a region to view it individually. You can’t adjust any type of visual settings so if you zoom too far in on, say, China, you get a million different location names in English and Chinese and you can’t even see the land under all the text. I am terrible at geography and thought this would help me with a class I’m taking but I was mistaken.
It’s like they took what they were in the process of developing years ago and just threw it up without even looking at it for a quick review. It takes a lot of disappointment for me to write reviews but this app is just so flat. Not Even Basic App Comforts (2020 iPad Pro) Since they have to drive to create the maps it probably takes awhile. Not the end of the world just wish it was updated. The aerial view is also different to the street view on some maps. It’s changed a lot since then and the picture is not clear. I know it’s from then because my house and the neighborhood was built in 2007. My address/ neighborhood for example is from 2007. I guess it’s not this app’s purpose but I like using this to get a good idea of where I’m going. Before vacation, going to a new restaurant, going over to someones house for the first time, I like to look the place up to get an idea of routes. I wish google would also update the maps. However I’ve noticed that sometimes an address doesn’t load and or it’s very slow and sits and buffers. Sometimes I just click on random places just to explore what certain places look like that I will probably never get to go. Nice view of the world with a touch of a button
