Google Maps is making driving to unfamiliar destinations even easier with a significant new feature called "destination guidance." With this update, Google Maps not only provides turn-by-turn directions but also helps you find parking and guides you to the building entrance. As you approach your destination, the app will suggest nearby parking spots and display a dotted line to lead you to the entrance. This dynamic update highlights the building you're navigating to and updates walking directions in real-time based on your location.
