Google Maps has updated its Wear OS Tile to enhance navigation for wearable device users. The fresh update introduces a direct shortcut to the map view to make it easier for users to access maps and transit information quickly.
With the new update, the Search button has been replaced with a Map button, allowing users to access the map view directly. This view not only shows locations but also serves as a simple compass, a feature not available on the Pixel Watch.
Previously, the Google Maps app Tile included a Search button that opened the app’s main feed and showed recent searches and nearby points of interest on Wear OS devices. But now, you can directly go to the map view.
Users can tap on locations for details and see transit stop schedules. To exit the map view, there’s a close button on the left side. This new change enhances the user experience on Wear OS devices, providing more efficient ways to navigate.

Google is enhancing its productivity tools with a new feature that will merge Google Keep reminders with Google Tasks, making it simpler to keep track of what you need to do. However, this change will rollout gradually over the next year.
Google Keep is a user-friendly app that lets individuals quickly note down ideas, create checklists, and set reminders. It also offers features like photo capture, voice recording, and drawing. Reminders can be added based on specific times or locations to provide timely prompts.
The upcoming change will see these reminders automatically transferred to Google Tasks. This will allow users to view, modify, and complete their reminders not just in Keep, but also in Calendar, Tasks, and Assistant.
With this new change, Google Tasks will become the single solution for all reminders within the Google Workspace. No matter where a reminder is created, whether it’s through Keep, Gmail, Calendar, Chat, Docs, or the Assistant, it will be synchronized and manageable in Google Tasks.
By integrating reminders into Google Tasks, users will get a more organized and accessible task management system.
