1.7. I can use online maps and localization services
Google Maps has long served as the go-to navigation tool for millions of phones, tablets, cars, and smart wearables. While everyone is probably familiar with using Google Maps to get from point A to point B, there are a multitude of multitool-like extras hiding under the hood that are worth highlighting.
Over the years, Google has added features that allow you to save your favorite places, share your location with friends, and get personalized recommendations.
