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!!!

Well, I used to love this App more but ever since the update there is no pictures to see that people have taken because most places I'll never get too and I used to use the pictures that people took as an idea for places I'd like to go to but without those it's kind of pointless because a lot of things are hazy or don't focus in and you can't get down to street view on anything other than in a big city it seems like. More than anything please bring back the pictures that people would take after being there and try to make it more current. I'm thinking about uninstalling it because my Google Maps seems to do better than Google Earth anymore except I still don't have any pictures to look at

After the most recent update I cannot even open the app on a brand new Samsung Galaxy S8. The splash screen just sits there with the blue loading wheel spinning indefinitely. Tried restarting phone, uninstalling and reinstalling and updating the phone all to no avail. Please fix this as I used to use the app all the time and loved it. Quite disappointing.

I got a new phone and when I download this app I thought that maybe it will be upgrade it how wrong I was I put in my address it took me to a whole different place and then when I get to where I'm supposed to be things are there that has not been there for I don't know how long then I go and I put my rental house address it takes me near it but it still has the tree in the yard that wasn't there 10 years ago when I removed it so this thing is not accurate no matter what phone and this is a pretty darn good phone S8+ I'm very disappointed now I have to uninstall this again this is so it's ridiculous I'm not gonna waste my time for the 3rd time unless there is a real update which I doubt there will be. I'm reading all these reviews and I don't understand why this is working for everyone else when I look I don't see my house or my rental house

ANDY COLLINS

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

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

Please please update your maps. Most places are outdated but other than its by far the best map app out here. I been using Google Earth since it came out. I loved it. But now I'm bored of it because nothing updates. I would give it five but it needs updated.

June 27, 2017

First google took away the mac/pc google earth versions in favor of a chrome based google earth. Terrible idea. Yes I know I can still download them but on Macs they no longer support retina displays and are very pixelated, making them useless. Now I have a brand new Galaxy S8 and the areas in 3d load so much slower than they used to. I had an 2.5 year old iPhone before and it would render a 3d city with easy. But now I have to sit and wait for the area to load. If I even slightly move the area them it takes another year to load that new section. I know the S8 can handle that power, so it has to be the app. That's the problem with streaming something vs it being completely installed on the device. Future idea, let there be 3d cities or areas that you can download so that it doesn't have to depend on internet.

June 1, 2017

It doesn't work! Not on THIS tablet anyway. Such a pity, I used to love it. Let me know when we can get good results. Any results!

Chuck Dean June 27, 2017

This is one of my favorite apps since its inception, back in 2001. Now if they could only come up with an app or outer space. If they ever do, they call it "Google Space".

Maurice Switzer June 18, 2017

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.

Lalit Kumar June 2, 2017

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...

Lucky Studio S7E June 24, 2017

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.

Jack Wiggins May 10, 2017

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!

Jean Satherley May 20, 2017

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.

jammy parmar June 14, 2017

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

Robert Aguinaga June 21, 2017

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

Steven Hagar May 31, 2017

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.

David Echegoyen May 19, 2017

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.

F S May 22, 2017

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!!!

Swethan D'souza June 22, 2017

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

cj depamphilis May 14, 2017

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!!!

Barry Caldwell June 7, 2017

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!!

Shamim Akhter June 9, 2017

1st it's always goes Disable and have to enable every time if you want to use. 2nd it's Slow like hell. 3rd it never load 3D view

andy munki May 9, 2017

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.

Mahesh Ningombam June 13, 2017

Well... When I zoom to the maximum amount, the image is blurred so I want to know it is natural or not. Do developers, I can send you a screenshot so please tell me how do I contact you? This app is so useful.

Lee Anderson May 21, 2017

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.

Aislee Tennyson June 4, 2017

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.

mark rigby May 9, 2017

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.

Eliot Francis May 20, 2017

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.

Nathan Collins June 13, 2017

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.

May 29, 2017

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.

May 8, 2017

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

April K June 7, 2017

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.

Sudeepan Sahoo May 30, 2017

Indian places are yet to be added with 3D structures. So I have to wait for that. When it comes, I will give 5 stars. This is a very good app. You can change the world, if u want to change the world. Good luck team

Bruno Silva June 11, 2017

I've been using Google Earth since 2005. It's one of the best things humanity has ever created! Now, to the app itself. Unfortunately it crashes a lot on my tablet (Nvidia Shield K1). Please look into it.

K S May 13, 2017

Since the "update", there seems to be less street view options and the clarity is not as good anymore when you are in street view. I still enjoy using the app though. Just prefer it before they "improved" things 😉

Russell Geer June 26, 2017

So Far So Good. It seems as though they've worked out the bugs In the desktop version and provided us with the Best version yet for the smart phone. In reading other reviews,

Teal Manning June 22, 2017

CRASHED EVERY 3MIN ON LG TAB !! Boo I expect more from google like fixing it i see alot of reviews tho, saying similar stuff so idk ?? What's the awnser googs

Ollie Roozen May 14, 2017

Seems pretty good to me. Obviously it can't be perfect as this is mobile. I do really like the landmark touristy features, I could foresee really making use of those on an overseas holiday. One thing this app does better than any other is simply seeing the world – far too many people are bogged down with trying to find their own street.
