What you need to know
- Google Maps has eliminated music playback controls in the application for some Android users.
- The characteristic that allowed control over transmission services such as YouTube Music and Spotify cannot be seen in the latest version of the application.
- It is not clear if this is an error or intentional elimination, since it is still available in the iOS version.
(Update 1:07 am et) Google has indicated that he is aware of the missing reproduction controls in the MAPS application after the recent update. A Google spokesman contacted Android Central, stating: “We are actively working to solve a problem that is affecting media reproduction controls on Google Maps.”
We all know that Google Maps is one of the most popular navigation applications, whether on Android phones and iOS phones, allowing users to connect to their favorite music transmission applications such as YouTube Music and Spotify to facilitate access while sailing. The practical controls gave users the ability to reproduce/pause music and omit or go to previous clues. Having music playback controls while sailing is one of those comforts that Maps offers, which has surprisingly disappeared in the last update.
9to5google Now he finds that practical controls, which are normally found in the navigation configuration of the MAPS application, have apparently eliminated, together with the lever to “show media reproduction controls.”
In addition, the option of establishing the music transmission service in the latest version of the Google Maps application is missing. Apparently it applies to the latest version V25.28 together with Beta 25.29. I could not find the same, since I also checked my Ultra Galaxy S24 running the same stable version of Google Maps.

Some Android central staff also saw that the controls are still on certain devices, while missing in others. It is not clear if the elimination of the most popular characteristic of the maps was a deliberate decision or an unwanted error. The function, however, as 9to5 notes, is still available in the latest version of IOS of Google Maps.
If it is not a mistake as it is anticipated and intentional, the recent elimination of the assistant driving mode will follow. It was eliminated as part of the Gemini transition, and also presented the media control bar similar to what Google Maps offers now.
However, with the driving mode of the discontinued assistant, having reproduction controls on Google Maps became useful. Well, that might not be the case until the next update of the application is exhausted, hopefully bring the popular characteristic back.
