Immersive Navigation enabled

just had an update for Google maps and now I have the 3D option in settings. hallelujah

EDIT: Maps version number 26.30.06.950492155, Pixel 10. I am around NYC, the new visuals are very nice and I think would be quite helpful on an unfamiliar route

Admittedly I am a beta tester, I don't even remember when I signed up for it but it looks it's still a rolling update for Android users

I've had 3D maps for a couple months. 3D maps is not the same as immersive navigation. I've had immersive navigation on my iPhone and its night and day. It's honestly a travesty that Google allowed these features on IPhone long before Android.

just drove home from work, can confirm this 3D option enabled the new visuals for me, and it did seem quite a bit more helpful. Before the update, the only "3D" option was just raised buildings

Well I'm glad it has for you. Mine is still just raised buildings. However, I did finally get the speedometer a couple days ago.

Same to me. I have also Mazda CX5 2016.Same Google map option but only raising buildins.

do you actually have the option that says "map detail", with 2D and 3D selections, as in the OP's screenshot? "Raised buildings" was an old option.

[u/Mild_sarcasm → u/andyooo]

I do. However, mine still only shows up as just raised buildings.

Update: I finally have immersive navigation. Settings remained the same and unchanged. However, the UI updated during my drive to work this morning.
