Google Maps 5.5: Check-ins and rating places get easier, redesigned transit station pages

Google updated their excellent Map app to version 5.5 for Android. The change log is as follows:

  • Check in and out directly from Place pages
  • Change Latitude work and home addresses
  • Redesigned the transit station pages

I don’t personally care about Latitude and the Check-in stuff, but I always update the Google Maps app when one is available. I depend on Google Maps for navigation and I just love it. I haven’t had a chance to use the transit station pages but I could see this being very useful information for users served by a major transit line.

You can download Google Maps 5.5 for Android from their market place page here. If you already have it installed its time for an update.
