Google Maps Updated With Pit Stop Support on iOS

The update allows users to add new stops to their navigation route without losing their original turn-by-turn directions.

After releasing its ‘pit stop’ update for Google Maps users on Android in October 2015, Google has announced the launch of the feature on iOS, allowing users to add new stops to their navigation routes without losing their original turn-by-turn directions.

With this update, users can search for gas stations, restaurants and other destinations by tapping the magnifying glass at the top right corner of the screen in the app’s navigation mode.

This brings up a list of suggested search terms, like gas stations and grocery stores (as examples), or users can search for other destinations by name or category.
