The Android parent has created lots of amazing apps but if we were to pick one as the most useful, then that app would be none other than Google Maps. This app makes it possible for people to navigate the world without ever having to be worried about getting lost. Google Maps features more than 220 countries and territories that are mapped to help users find the safest and fastest routes. To make things even better, Google is constantly updating the app with improvements. In fact, a new update has started rolling out earlier this morning.
Google Maps 10.36.0 Beta Update

As previously noted, the developers who are in charge of the app have just published a brand-new update. The update is changing the app’s version number to 10.36.0 beta and it is now rolling out via OTA (over the air) channels.
We need to point out that the new update is exclusively available for beta users. On the bright side of things, the update is surely going to see a global release during the upcoming weeks.
