Google Maps Speedometer Vanishes from Android Auto
Google Maps' speedometer feature in Android Auto has suddenly disappeared for many users. The feature, which was added to Google Maps in July, shows a live reading of your speed and can also warn you if you're going too fast.
Users on Reddit have been complaining about the missing feature, with some reporting that stop signs and signals are no longer visible in Google Maps either. While some users had mixed experiences or never even saw these features, most people were familiar with the speedometer popping up during navigation sessions.
The disappearance of this feature may be frustrating for those who relied on it, but clearing the cache and storage data within the app's settings is often a common fix for minor issues like this. If that doesn't work, users will just have to wait for an update to roll out.
Android Police has reached out to Google for clarification, and if they hear back, they'll update the story with more information.
