Official Google Maps has a Dark Mode

The Google Maps app has officially Dark Mode, but for now it’s only available on Android. Google announced that it has widely updated the Dark Mode in Google Maps, on Android and Android Auto, after a trial period since September 2020.

Google’s new Dark Mode is different from the previous night mode option, which can be enabled in the Settings menu, under Theme. Dark Mode really turns everything into a black background, not just the map part.

Google Maps Dark Mode is one of a bunch of new features that will be updated by Google for Android. In addition, Android Auto can now also show some games with maps, like Trivia Crack, Jeopardy! and Song Quiz.

Android Auto will also have a split screen feature, allowing drivers to view the map while accessing other apps.

Google has not yet revealed the time it will officially update the Dark Mode for iOS.
