With this new feature, users will always know their location, without having to worry about getting lost when losing mobile networks or going into areas with no signal.

According to Android Authority, Google Maps will allow users to navigate and access maps even without a network connection. This feature will use satellite signals to update location, instead of having to rely on mobile data or Wi-Fi as before.

This innovation will help users not have to worry about losing connection while traveling in remote areas or places with difficult terrain, where mobile signals are unstable or unavailable. The satellite feature will also be useful for adventure travelers or those working in areas with poor internet connectivity.

With the new satellite feature, users will still know their location even without internet.

In addition, this feature can also help in rescue work when natural disasters or incidents cause disruption of normal telecommunications services.

Although Google has not announced an official release date, experts believe that the satellite feature will be present in the Android 15 update, expected to launch later this year.
