Comment on Google Maps Testing New Apple Maps-Inspired Map Styleparent

yeah nobody cares about the "Latest in <location>" menu that takes up a third of your phone's screen when you use the Maps app.

I'm probably one of the few who really likes this feature, though I do wish it was something I navigated to, rather than it being so obtrusive.

I moved somewhere new in the past few years, and it's pretty great when you're exploring a new neighborhood you know nothing about.

Does anyone know how to turn it off forever?

a year ago at least (when I dexompiled the app) it was explicitely not possible.
