Gmail now has smarter autocomplete contact suggestions when composing messages, and its more robust Google Drive support prompts you if you'd like to grant access to the person you're sharing a file with, in the event they don't have it.

Google Maps [Play]

The Google Maps Mobile got some minor updates and the desktop version has also made official a feature previously available only through Google Labs: the ability to map out a route and get the exact distance between any number of points or stops. Check your Google Play Store App for these updates, it will take few hours to start rolling-out to your Android device.
