This is Google's earth so i thought it would give direction service too and get rid of the old type of Google map app as it has features like map .. And no 3D is there at all when I search some places and famous places. But there is no way to use of any purpose. It is just like a game for children. Call of duty: 3D. Make it more useful. Thanx with regards. And yes this runs smoother than Google map app...

I can see my place still not up to date. The view that i see was 3 4 years ago. If the view were 2017, i would like to give 5 out of 5 stars. And even i go to highest quality setting for view still look like moderate quality. And don't take for granted because your app considerably help for looking some place to travel. For me travel around world were very addicted and fun to know and learn other cultures.

I used to LOVE this app! I used it to look up places from my childhood since my dad was military. I had been using it because I'm in the process of buying a house and it makes it easier to look up the address and check out the surrounding homes and neighborhood all from wherever I sit. No driving by every house. HOWEVER, it does absolutely NOTHING now, except the little wheel spins. It can spin for hours and NEVER loads. I'm extremely pissed!!!!

My street was here in 1927 but Google still can't show it as a street although clearly visible. Overall app seems to work ok although zooming in too far shows totally fictional computer generated detail. Shows a second building of some sort next to mine... but it's been an empty lot for 90 years. Strange!

Since the last update, seeing anyplace (I live in NZ) is r e a l l y slow and seems to take about 30+ secs to become clear. The street view photos are at least 6 years old. It's still a great app, and I will keep using it as it is the best one but I just wish it was more update.

Indian pIaces are yet to be added with 3D Structures． SO I haVe to WaIt fOr that． When it c아nes， I wi∥ give 5 stars． ThiS Is a ve｀ good app． You can Change the WOrld， if u Want to change the world． Good Iuck team

I used to love the old design of Google Earth because you could find places and get info on them and even do points of destination to map out exactly where you wanted. Now this one is just a toy that let's you see small pieces of something. Only thing I like is the clean interface.

New version chashes during startup. The progress indicator makes about two full loops and I'm back at my desktop. Tested April 27, 2017 release. Uninstalled back to stock version (v8). UPDATE: I also tried the new version on my RCA 11 inch tablet. It doesn't crash it just never loads the app. The progress indicator just spins until I get tried of it. Uninstalled from both my NextBook Areas 11a, and RCA 11 inch tablets. v9.0.4.2 is just plain buggy!!!

Hate this new update. It was a simple tool to use prior to this update. I am a truck driver and before going to unknown location I would use this to as a way to see what roads or near bye buildings as land marks or point of entry now it's horrible

This "major upgrade" of GE is a major fail. The features look interesting but when I call up a particular place and it zooms to the spot where a beautiful detailed pic of the area should be displayed I get nothing but a blurry screen. If the area is in the desert I get a brown blurry screen. If the area is an island I get blue with the name of the island on the screen. It's a shame because I was looking forward to this edition of GE. Now I'm just a one star guy.

The app idea is good but it drops in 3D mode. When viewing in 3D mode, the things are blur. When viewing Effiel Tower we get to see it in 3D but when viewing Gate Way of India in Mumbai it does not come in 3D. It seems like the 2D image has just tilted. So these should be updated from my view.

Crashes immediately when trying to open it after update on April 18, 2017, and here one month later on May 19, it still is a broken app. Please fix and I will give better rating. I'm using a Nextbook Ares Android tablet.

Deceived mode (View Images) global!.. Not "3D-view" but it is a bit THEMED IMAGES and Blurry of 2-D games... Anyway, street views on this app will been mostly okay and do a lot of things in mapping very clear views!!!

What happened??? This was my favorite app. The update ruined it. Hardly loads when I zoom in. The street names aren't there anymore. The "searched" location (red dot) disappears the second you zoom out. What is this street view thing? Just makes everything blue and can't do anything. I try to use it but I end up exiting out because I get so irritated. Bring the old version back!!!

App is good for map search, track location, street views. But prob is that it crashes suddenly for monent after start up. I did clear data lots of time still im getting prob. Plz fix that problem. My mobile is Micromax unite 3

What a disaster. This is an update? No, surely this is a downgrade. It used to crash every time. It still does, only much quicker now. Map tiles break up and flicker, multiple copies of the same tile overlap each other, then bang, back to desktop. Utterly useless, and no hyperbole.

What gives?!? I downloaded/installed the newest version in my new phone (LG G5), & it wouldn't load when I tried to start it up. I go back to the old phone (HTC ONE M8), & the older version works. I install this newest version in the HTC, & now it won't load. Same failure with this new version across 2 different devices! That sucks pretty badly!!

Image quality degraded looks like a gif now. Less functionality like can only view 3d from a set angle - used to have full control. Pretty useless without panoramio image layer. They tried to make it more stylish but it's now only useful for the most famous landmarks. Local use is now pointless.

It keeps on shutting down . A Also the street names do not always show. I think this app is ok otherwise. Perhaps if there was a feature to assist in finding a location from one place to another in the same city. Ex Toronto to Toronto point a to b.

With all of the so called technology that we have today, this is what you give us? Fake digitalized images with fake cloud coverings not letting you see the ground? The app stops working anytime you try to see anything interesting. It freezes too much. No mapping of the land is shown as far as names of places, roads, Rivers ECT. This app sucks. I hope a hacker makes a better one and blows you guys up for the liars you are.

Extraordinary. This app changes the way we use maps from time to time and now in a more wider perspective. One suggestion, since it is only used with WiFi, a save button could be useful for navigating offline in small areas like a certain street, even if it does not apply to the whole world

I used to use this app all the time but after the latest update it's become really slow and irritating. It's also a lot less useful without photos. Just another case of fixing something that isn't broken.

Why would you take away all the photos... used to be my favorite app. Id find a photo of a beautiful lake or waterfall near my house and that would be my adventure for the day. Why would you ever remove that feature. Worst app ever now pointless useless. UNINSTALLING.

So okey, i downloaded it cos i was looking for a certain place, and it did show me. But what really disappoints me is that it cant give you direction on how to get there unlike the old google map, itll guide you on how to get there. Theres another map on top of it. A huge photo of the place i was looking for. So huge i cant see the google earth map anymore.

Street view image rendering takes 10 seconds per view change! Not useful at all! Most of Scotland is low quality resolution imaging. (Are you run from London? We see you've done their imaging fine) Roads & labels etc take a while to appear. Poor effort.

New version refuses to load any sort of label or border overlay regardless of the map style setting. I've deleted all data, reinstalled, reset, and still this error persists. Worked perfectly on my previous phone. What happened Google?

I thought it was laggy and had very poor picture quality. It was less useful for booking events and learning anout a location you might want to visit, and more for if you're just bored and happen to want to know what brazil would look like as a very crappy version of the mobile sims game.

This app used to work well on my galaxy pro 12.2. But since all the "Updates" it just sits there and the whirling circle does it's thing. There have been no software updates to the tablet that might have impacted the app. Will be uninstalling soon. Come on Google, you're even fooling yourself with a de eptive 4.3 rating out of 5. That's telling me that the absolute approval is 86%. But from the figures cast, only 1,332,476 out of 2,087,792 are completely satisfied, to me that equates to 63.82%. As you can't do simple maths, it's little wonder the earth isn't working for you.

You need to put 3d images of other states also not only few places u people are just fooling us only by showing some places.... U might loss ur cause of this act

All the monuments should be created in 3D. I saw only Effiel Tower and Tokyo Tower in 3D. In India, all the terrains and hills are 3D and nothing else. So, now I'm giving 4 star. (Must Improve the Graphics). I still can't see the Kamakhya Temple in 3D. Still good app for knowledge.

It works only once on a place then if you try to look for anything else it will be just pixels. Also the search doesn't work, just loads and loads. Even if you search for a major landmark... please fix this. The older Google Earth app worked a lot better.

This application crashes almost immediately since the most recent update on my Galaxy Tab 4. I get 1 to 2 minutes of use before my tablet locks up. Then I have to restart it. The previous version of Google Earth worked perfectly.

I loved this app amzing quality of graphics very reaĺistic was great for navigating long distances with a virtual view for identifying things like mountains and coastlines.. but that all changed when I got the recent upgrade and now the view is restricted too much haze has been added to it and looks more computerised than realistic. Please bring back the one before the upgrade

This update is total rubbish. It constantly crashes on Sony Experia tablet. Google have not thought this update through, they have just pushed out yet another update for the sake of it. It was far better than this 5 years ago Google have gone backwards.

Its a great idea. But the maps are 3-4 yrs old. It shows the area information of 3-4 yrs back. Thats a big disappointment. And the quality of the terrain are not good at 200 mts and shows blurry images. 3d images dont work.

Google earth used to show actual photos (even tho they were old) now it looks computer drawn. It looks pants! Downgrade back to photos google. I Went to show this off to an elderly housebound lady friend who i thought would enjoy it and NEITHER of us could understand it. Its so blocky and blobby. An app i used to love is now rubbish. 👎

I have used google earth for years and have loved it, but the developers seem to have gone backwards with the last update. Panoramio is gone, super slow to load, and really is just a slightly less useful version of google maps. The 3d viewing is really all it's good for anymore. It has deviated so far from what it use to be that it's really not of any use for me anymore. I guess I'll have to resort to only using the desktop version.

This program has been ruined. Google want you to see an explore what they want to see, not what you want to see. Voyeger is a completely useless tool. It feels like a glossy you did not chose for at the dentist waiting room.

It's not 3D just pictures from the top...I tap on 3D tag but it not real as I saw in pictures... Please make it 3D You should improve it... Give it best picture quality graphics And important thing is it required too much time .... Please give best results

This was a really great app.....until it was updated. Now rivers and other features are not labeled, even though I have that feature turned on. Very slow to load now too. And it jumps around when trying to zoom in or rotate. It also cannot display changes in elevation, making everything flat. The 3D option is great, just don't touch it while in that mode! Sorry to be so negative, but the app designers really screwed up what was a good app.
