Key Points
Soon, there will be even more updates, including a new feature that will help users find the entry or exit point of a building..
Many Google Maps users have experienced the frustration of navigating to a specific building, only to find the designated location is on the wrong side or even on a different street from the actual entrance..
According to Android Police, Google Maps is currently testing a new feature through Google Maps version 11.17.0101 on a Google Pixel 7a that shows designated entry and exit points for specific locations..
However, while the feature has been displaying entry points for some locations, it is reported that Google is still gathering necessary information, as it doesn't work consistently for all buildings..
Similar to the recently introduced feature for public transport stations, showing entry and exit points for buildings will help users avoid confusion and find the most convenient way to access their destination..
