Immersive view ( Google maps)

[hash tag]

I was planning a route for tomorrow on my phone. I asked for directions. At the bottom left of my screen was a box which looked like street view, but no, it was immersive view. It was like being in a helicopter flying of the route I wished to take. To add to the experience it was a night sky with lots of lights on. It was showing all the buildings, trees etc. amazing.

Google maps has been crying out for a function like that. I’m going to try it now!

Had a go, couldn't see it, tried a route in London and it popped up. Very pretty, but not for us poor provincials.

Yeah, no good for my trip to the Mendips next weekend.

I've tried replicating it. It appears to be very limited. This is Wandsworth town hall to Banstead
I've tried sharing it but it will just show step by step.

It will not wok on my laptop but still automatically plays on my phone!

It's for Android and iOS which means phones only doesn't it?
