Maps Updates [loses Places widget]
Just the other day Maps updated to 5.10.1. I’m all for updates on great apps. Especially Google ones. And this update brings some bug fixes and transit navigation accuracy [if you have transit available in your area].
However, what it doesn’t say in that notice is that it removed the Places widget. Places is still available, but the widget it had is now gone.
Recently I had shown you some of my home screens and one had the places widget. It was great to quickly review / check-in for G+.
Now I can’t do that. If I want to check in I have to go to G+, and post a blank status. Or, I have to go through maps and do it.
If I want to rate a place, I would have to go through Maps or Places to do so. So many more steps rather than a simple widget.
Google, please return the widget, or make a shortcut for rate/check-in.
