Following the Google Maps Mobile for Android update from late last year, yesterday evening Google released another update for its mapping application - Google Maps Mobile 3.4 - which finally brings multitouch - aka pinch to zoom - to Google Maps Mobile (Android 2.0 or greater required). Other enhancements are the support for starred items from google.com, which are now synced with Google Maps Mobile, as well as search suggestions from maps including the desktop Google Maps search history. And last but not least, Google Maps Navigation (available in certain countries only) now supports night mode navigation. Recent introduced experimental Labs features are unchanged and still part of v3.4 for Android.

Like the Google Maps Mobile 3.3 update, Google Maps Mobile 3.4 is available for all latest Android smartphones running Android 1.6/Donut or Android 2.0/Android 2.0.1/Eclair except Android 1.5/Cupcake and Android 1.0 smartphones which aren't supported anymore.
