Google Maps Speedometer Vanishes from Android Auto
Android Auto users are facing yet another issue as the long-awaited Google Maps speedometer feature has gone missing. The bug seems to be affecting some users, with reports suggesting that the speedometer disappeared when navigation is not enabled. Others claim that the feature is entirely gone.
Some users have reported that they were able to get the speedometer back by exiting the beta version of Google Maps and Android Auto. However, this solution has not worked for everyone. The issue is particularly frustrating as it comes just as users were expecting a major update that would bring immersive navigation features, including 3D buildings and see-through bridges.
The bug appears to be related to issues with the traffic colors being hidden, making the app less useful for navigation purposes. Google has not yet responded to user complaints, and it is unclear if an investigation is underway.
