Google updates its Google Maps for Android.

Recently Google has updated its Google Maps 4.4 for Android 1.6 and above, Google has improved the mobile offering of Places. Android owners can now add the Places icon to their home screens and use it to quickly locate nearby venues and their accompanying information-rich business listings.

The new update will help the android users to query nearby places by voice or text, and to find  restaurants, coffee, bars, hotels and gas stations ........ to search for places.

Returned results are based on its expanding database of Place Pages. When pulling up a Place Page for a venue, users can glimpse the open hours for the business, easily see the distance and compass direction, and check out prices, parking and restaurant menu links.

BlackBerry users soon gets to experience it when Google updates m.google.com/maps.
