Google has just pushed two updates out for their popular Google Maps and Google Goggles apps. Bringing a few needed improvements to Goggles, and an awesome new night mode to Google Maps Navigation and more. We’ve snapped a few screenshots of the what’s new page for those interested and have all the details below.

First off, Google Maps has seen more than a few updates lately but all have been very minor and the same applies here. Only adding a “night mode” for navigation while going through tunnels. Here in Vegas we don’t have too many of those, and instead just lots of Casinos. Give the new update a try and check out that night mode.

Next is Google Goggles — yes they are still updating this application occasionally although it has been a while. Goggles appears to have received a rather large update bringing all sorts of improvements and big fixes this time around. The performance improvements for continuous mode are a welcomed addition.

Not to be rude but looking over the “what’s new” for Goggles I can’t help but wonder who the heck wrote it. English skills seem to be lacking. Get the updates right now from the market links below.

  1. No offense, but the crew here at Android Community are in _no_ position to flame Google over composition skills and/or grammar.

    Of course, if you guys think you can handle daily (and brutal) criticism along those lines, I’d be more than happy to pitch in. Just sayin’… 🙂

  2. I think the jab is that the tense seems to be a future-command (not sure what it would actually be called), when you might expect it to be present tense. However, I think in commits it’s normal to use this kind of tense; you write what the error was and how it should behave, as opposed to writing what you fixed. Although I would probably write “should not store inaccurate locations” as opposed to don’t.

    I am pretty sure the teams repo-commits are what comprise the what’s new section, but as I am not an android dev myself, I am not positive.
