Google Maps is about to support satellite connection

According to Tech WCCF , Google Maps, the world's most popular map and navigation app, is about to add satellite functionality, allowing users to use maps and find directions even without an internet connection.

This feature is currently under development by Google and is expected to launch soon. According to reliable sources, the satellite feature will allow users to update their location using satellite signals, instead of relying on cellular or Wi-Fi connections as they do now.

Thanks to this improvement, users will no longer have to worry about losing signal while traveling in remote or rugged areas where mobile signals are often weak or unavailable. This new feature is also particularly useful for frequent travelers , mountaineers, hikers, or those working in areas with limited internet connectivity.

Additionally, satellite capabilities can also be used to support rescue and relief operations in the event of natural disasters or incidents that disrupt telecommunications infrastructure.

Currently, Google has not announced the official launch date for the satellite navigation feature on Google Maps. However, many experts predict that this feature will be integrated into the Android 15 update, expected to be released later this year.

Note that the user's phone will need to support satellite connectivity to use this feature. Currently, satellite connectivity works on most modern Android devices, as well as upcoming 5G-enabled phones such as the Pixel 9 series or the Galaxy S25 series.
