Google Street View Independent App will cease operation in 2023

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Coje_He for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, November 2 (Xinhua)-- Android and iOS versions of Google Street View App will stop operating early next year and will be removed from the app store in the coming weeks. A Google spokesman confirmed that the app will be retired from March 2023.

This is a dedicated Street View app on Android and iPhone that allows users to use Google's services to get 360-degree views from around the world. It is important to note that this feature will not be removed from the standard Google Maps app.

CTOnews.com has learned that the Web version of the Google Street View app will remain, so users can still upload images and continue to browse Street View in Google Maps.

When the Google Street View app is closed, it will also cancel the Street View photo path, which was only launched last year. This allows users to use their own two-dimensional photos to provide images for areas in the street view that have not been covered. The photos will then be strung together to cover locations that have not been taken by Google cameras. But existing photo paths photos can still be accessed through Google Maps.
