A major feature dump for Google Maps just rolled out to make getting around easier during the holidays. New features include smart shopping tools, immersive route views, live updates for road conditions and transit lines, and trailer-friendly route planning.

Maps' new update is also designed to help you beat the winter blues with a little help from Gemini. Just type in something like “fun winter activities in NYC” and let the ideas roll in. Once you find a spot that catches your eye, you can check for perks like free parking and get the lowdown from user reviews summarized with Gemini.

With Google Maps' latest update, you spend less time figuring out where you're going and more time doing what needs to get done.

Google Maps is finally getting the ability to enter vehicle size to avoid low bridges — but with a few pretty major restrictions.

If you're a last-minute shopper, Google Maps has you covered this holiday season. If you're someone who saves your shopping until the very end, you can now search for products in Google Maps to find nearby stores that have them in stock.
