TL;DR Summary

Google Maps has received a major redesign, but the changes have been met with widespread criticism. Users have described the new design as generic and lacking in usability, while professional UI designers have also expressed concerns. Additionally, the new color scheme is not color-blind friendly, making it difficult for color-blind individuals to use the app effectively. Some have even started a petition calling for Google to reverse the color changes. The redesign has also drawn comparisons to Apple Maps, with critics noting that Google Maps still has cluttered elements that hinder the user experience.
