Google Maps to get Material Design UI Update Over the Next Few Days [APK Download]

Google put another blog post up this morning detailing what is to come in the next update to Google Maps. The app will soon see an update in the Play Store that will bring a set of visual changes that will bring the app up to speed with the Material Design guidelines.

The bold colors, visual queues and animations will be a nice addition to maps, but that is not all we have to look forward too. The update will also bring in the ability to make reservations in the app at restaurants thanks to OpenTable integration and  as well as estimated arrival times and pricing for Uber.

The update to Google Maps will be rolling out to devices everywhere over the next few days. As usual, as soon as we get our hands on the APK we will be sure to share it with you all. Until then, what do you think of the Google Maps look from the images above?

Update: So, the APK has been out for a bit but the servers at Gappsearly have been hammered all day long. A mirror link for the file was added to a G+ post for all to snag if you have issues getting to the website. Head over to their G+ page for the file link.
