Google has updated its Maps app for the iPhone. In the new update, Google has included new widgets that can be placed both on Home Screen and the Today View. The new Google Maps widget for iPhone can also be added in a widget stack.

There are only two widgets available right now. Google plans to add more widgets for the Maps app in future updates. The first one is the small square one that lets you check traffic conditions, store opening times, restaurant reviews, and more for a given location.

While the bigger one, the one that’s rectangular in shape, lets you find nearby places like restaurants, gas stations, and grocery stores.
