Google Maps now supports the Now Bar feature on One UI 7, providing live navigation updates on the lock screen for a seamless experience.

Google said the name changes, which also includes using Mount McKinley, will happen when Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is updated.

One of the big new features in Samsung’s Android 15 update, One UI 7, is the “Now Bar,” and the latest Google Maps update is adding support for it as we wait for a wider rollout.

Google announced that it would be taking steps to change the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Google Maps in the US on its Google Maps platform.

Viral posts suggest Google Maps imagery shows a human trafficking plea in L.A., but police say there's no evidence of nefarious activity.

Google Maps users in the U.S. can expect to see “the Gulf of America” in place of “the Gulf of Mexico” and “Mount McKinley” instead of “Denali” on the map, in line with President Donald Trump’s executive order of last week.

President of Mexico Claudia Sheinbaum says her country is reaching out to Google about its Maps change and is suggesting additional revisions of its own.

Google Maps will change the name of "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America" once it is officially updated in the U.S. Geographic Names System, Google said in an X post on Monday.
