  • Google could be planning to kill Driving Mode in Google Maps in early 2024, according to an APK teardown.
  • The teardown suggests that you might need to use Google Assistant for your driving needs instead.

Google currently offers a Driving Mode in Google Maps for Android, delivering a safer, more convenient experience when navigating. Unfortunately, it looks like this feature might be removed early next year.

9to5Google spotted two curious strings in version 14.52 of the Google app, and we were subsequently able to spot them as well. The outlet believes that these strings relate to the Driving Mode in Google Maps for Android. The first string notes that an unspecified “view” is going away in February 2024.
